Hola! On the 15th of August, Martin Shaw and Christopher Fraser will catch a bus for Ukraine to join a group of foreign volunteers helping rebuild homes, schools and other social infrastructure destroyed by Russian aggression. Over the following month, we will work with local organisations in the Kviy area including:
With millions of Ukrainians focused on the conflict, Ukraine needs all the help it can get to rebuild. We have been talking with Phoenix UA and they have asked if we can help raise funds for some tools they urgently need (an electric hoist, vibratory rammer and a cement mixer). The money raised will be spent on tools and any leftover on materials, which we will buy locally when we arrive in Ukraine and distributed to Phoenix UA, Brave to Rebuild or Dobrobat.

Con millones de ucranianos concentrados en el conflicto, Ucrania necesita toda la ayuda que pueda obtener para reconstruir. Hemos estado hablando con Pheonix y nos han preguntado si podemos ayudar a recaudar fondos para algunas herramientas que necesitan con urgencia (un polipasto eléctrico, un apisonador vibratorio y una mezcladora de cemento). El dinero recaudado se gastará en herramientas y cualquier sobrante en materiales, que compraremos localmente cuando lleguemos a Ucrania y los distribuiremos a Phoenix, Brave to Rebuild o Dobrobat.
