Stourton Woods Sunflowers for Ukraine
Stourton Woods is raising money for ActionAid
Story
As Sunflowers are the National Flower for Ukraine we wanted to support the people of Ukraine with donations from our Sunflower Trail going directly to the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal
ActionAid and DEC member agencies are working to meet all immediate needs including food, water, protection, and trauma care.
Heavy fighting, shelling and air strikes across Ukraine have had devastating consequences. Over 2 million people, mostly women and children have fled Ukraine, with over 1.2 million crossing the border into Poland. Hundreds of thousands of women and children are arriving with only what they can carry. Hungry, exhausted and traumatised, people are in urgent need of food, water and shelter. People are losing their homes and lives, essential services like water and healthcare have been hit and temperatures have dropped below zero.
ActionAid is scaling up its response to provide emergency support and protection for those forced to flee to Poland, Hungary and Romania. Urgent needs include food, water, shelter, hygiene and dignity kits.
What will happen next is unclear, but with your help, ActionAid and other DEC charities can scale up our response and help families affected by this crisis.
Your donation will be sent directly to ActionAid in a fast and secure way. Thank you for your incredible support.
