Standing with Heroes: Honouring Memory, Supporting the Future
Ukraine Appeal brought the community together for Standing with Heroes, a moving event honouring those who gave their lives for Ukraine’s freedom. In a space of remembrance and solidarity, we reflected on the courage of fallen defenders and those still protecting Ukraine today. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, an EcoFlow generator funded through the event has now been delivered to the Sumy region, providing vital assistance to people living under constant threat. This collective effort shows the strength, unity, and compassion of the Milton Keynes Ukrainian community and our partners.
