We have 1300 colleagues in Ukraine with a similar corporate programme that initially provided assistance moving people in the East to other locations. I'm not directly involved but my boss is since the entire Ukraine organisation falls under her remit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife has volunteered to help and we are funding supplies from SK to the border. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
