WORK PORTFOLIO

WORK PORTFOLIO

We have worked across Ukraine, with a particular focus on the Donbas (particularly Bakhmut and Lysychansk) in 2022, and the south (Kherson and Mykolaiv oblasts) in 2023.

ABOUT US

ABOUT US

We are two British people, a technology director from Sussex and a farmer from Cornwall, who individually came to Ukraine to help shortly after the 24th February invasion. After witnessing the amount of bureaucracy and red tape affecting large international organisations, we decided to found an independent team.

In 2022 we worked primarily in the Donbas, evacuating 400 people from close to the front lines: Bakhmut, Lysychansk and the surounding areas. Since January 2023 we have reocated our work to the Kherson and Mykolaiv regions. While we continue to evacuate vulnerable people away from dangerous areas, our focus is on people's current urgent needs. We have installed drinking water solutions for over 15,000 people and are currently rapidly expanding following the Nova Kakhovka Dam crisis. We are also helping people to rebuild their destroyed homes, both by sourcing building materials and by helping elderly people with reconstruction work ourselves.
