Aid for Ukrainian war refugees

Aid for Ukrainian war refugees. How Bridgewater School can help

Urgent help needed 3rd – 4th March 2022

As the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine worsens, aid workers on the Ukrainian-Polish border are witnessing tragic scenes. War refugees with children are facing freezing temperatures and, having spoken with the Polish Integration Support Centre (PISC), they urgently need our help in the following ways.

What we can do:

  • Help raise vital funds – 10 ambulances needed now. Visit their JustGiving page to donate >
  • Donate items – they have specifically asked us for thermal under-clothing (vests / leggings) for children and adults. Please bring to school before 9.30am tomorrow (Friday 4th March) to enable us to transport to their depot in Wrexham ready for transport this weekend
  • Volunteer – help needed with processing of donations & loading of trucks at the Polish Centre ‘Wilno’ Manchester, Worsley Road, Eccles M30 8BL. After 10am on 3rd or 4th March. Or at the Polish Social Centre in Bury (Back East Street, BL9 0RU) between 10am and 9pm today (3rd March).

Thank you so much.

The freedom to be yourself is the greatest freedom of all
