Local Relief Effort for Ukraine

Dear all,

Many of you will have already been involved in local and national projects to contribute to the relief effort for the people of Ukraine through fundraising and collecting donated items, and will be continuing to do so in these coming days and weeks.

A local initiative that has come to our attention today, is that being organised by Sandfields Farm who have their site at Upper Moor on the Wyre Piddle Bypass. Sandfields Farms employ around 300 Ukrainian workers each season for harvesting salad and vegetable crops in the fields in and around Fladbury, Moor, Charlton and elsewhere in the Vale. The farm is collecting blankets, towels, clothes, non-perishable food, medical and first aid supplies, and nappies and hygiene items. The farm will be pleased to accept any of the above items in good condition before Wednesday 9th March. A lorry will be leaving them on or after the 10th March.

To arrange your drop off between the hours of 8am and 4pm call Sandfield Farm’s office on 01386555054.
