Keep a lookout for local donation points. My child's school were collecting, with the goods being driven to Poland, for onwards distribution. There are many others up and down the country.

As climbers we all probably have old, but warm kit that could do with a new home. Also, lots of other things are required from batteries to sanitary products to crayons and colouring books.

This was posted yesterday and is spurring more outdoor brands to donate and organise collection points: https://www.europeanoutdoorgroup.com/articles/ukraine-humanitarian-support-...

Stay tuned for more announcements from various companies in the coming days.

Seems Ok now - I've linked and signed the petition as well as writing to my MP and demanding he represent me showing his hand at Westminster by demanding the home secretary welcomes Ukrainian refugees.
