In mid November, a group of North Norfolk constituents and myself took aid to Ukraine. As many of you know, we took Anna and Sviatik who had lived with my family since 3rd April to be reunited with their husband and Father too.

Since we returned, Putin has bombarded Ukrainian cities with drone and missile attacks, specifically to destroy innocent civilian power infrastructure. To break the will of the Ukrainian people, he wants to now freeze and starve them into surrender. The group that visited in November want to return with more aid. People are in desperate need of emergency electricity supplies.

When we visited, we were told by the aid agency that Ukrainians were desperate for generators.

Myself, Rob Scammell, Michelle Foulkes and Paul East want to return with our vans filled with generators for distribution to those struggling for power. In order to provide medical care, light, heat, communications and a means to cook food, we want to raise enough money to fill at least a couple of transit vans.

We know that so many people want to help, we've already had generators donated so we are aiming to return in February with enough money raised to buy as many generators are we can. The average temperature in Kyiv in February ranges from -1°C to as low as -8°C.
