How do you feel about the invasion of the Ukraine by Russia?

Whilst we may all have differing knowledge and views of how we’ve arrived at this truly awful event, we now have a war tearing apart a country who has the misfortune to have Russia as their neighbour and there are innocent men, women and children dying, injured and homeless who need our help.

 There is a desperate need for both physical goods and financial help.

Organising the storing and shipping of physical goods will take time. Meantime, we felt our local community would welcome a locally based fundraising page under the auspices of a recognised local organisation and have therefore set up this page administered by the Cheddar Chamber of Commerce team to raise funds for the work of the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) specifically for the Ukrainian people.

Please donate whatever you are able to afford to rescue those trapped and provide help to those made homeless.

Thanks so much
