Dried & Tinned food – next shipment to Ukraine 7th May 2025
UKRAINE EMERGENCY APPEAL

Thank you for taking the time to read this update. You may already be aware of the work our organisation is doing with the Revival Centre in Chernihiv and other areas within Ukraine. Indeed some of you may already be supporting us, for which we sincerely thank you. The situation in Ukraine is worsening. On our recent visit we sensed that some people are beginning to lose hope; their strength being severely tested by the constant bombardment day in and day out.
Now, more than ever, farmers are finding it harder to grow their crops of wheat and vegetables due to a combination of overhead bombing and their fields being mined. Food is becoming scarce and, when available, ever more expensive. We are planning for our next trip to Ukraine at the end of May 2025. Our biggest priority will be food and medical aid. We want to take tinned and dried food with a long shelf life (up to 6 months) and we would be so grateful for any donations you can give – no matter how small
Types of food needed:
- Tinned: meat, fish, vegetables (tomatoes,. beans, pulses), soup
- Dried – pasta (including gluten free), rice, oats, milk powder, baby food and cooking oil
