These people are risking their lives to provide relief for vulnerable innocents on the front line of this invasion.

JOHN MULLETT

John is a consultant who is currently involved in water, sanitation and clean cooking for use in Africa and Emergency Aid. As the choir master in St Andrews Church, he axed choir practice on the day of the invasion and replaced it with a silent vigil and a sung Compline service. Nataliya and friends attended, conversations took place and then things happened.

JACQUI FULLER

Peter and I attend St. Andrews Church and am currently a Churchwarden. This involves day to day responsibilities for the building and administration. It was in this capacity that Nataliya approached me and asked if the church could help. Peter and I were both maths teachers in our day.
