Head of Philanthropy, Victoria Williamson: “We have 13 families staying with us in Normandy at the moment – some with six or eight people together. This has been a particularly challenging and emotional time for everyone, due to the sad reality that the war is continuing and returning home does not look like it can happen anytime soon. The French government will provide social housing from the beginning of October, but these accommodations will only come with beds, a fridge, a washing machine and very little else." https://bit.ly/3faXPtF

To celebrate Ukraine’s 31st Independence Day we want to share some positive news... Along with her talented team, our Head of Global Philanthropy, Victoria Williamson has been working hard over at our Karma Refuge base, Karma Residence Normandy, and has managed to secure housing for 23 families who would like to continue to stay in France! All the apartments are within a 20 minute drive from Karma's Normandy property, so we can continue to make that our place for meetings and catch-ups; which is great news.

Karma Refuge Summer Camp! With the school holidays now upon us, Karma Cares new Director, Victoria Williamson, had the bright idea of organising a summer camp for your younger guests. Victoria said, "I wanted the children to learn English whilst having fun and playing games and with the money raised through our Just Giving page, I was able to buy lots of games and supplies to help make the learning really fun. The first weekend was a great success with all the teenagers getting involved too, which was lovely to see! "
