Heywood: Ukraine needs donors, not bracelets

Buying and showing yellow and blue stuff to support Ukraine is noble and I am sure very much appreciated.

However, sending the money for these items to a relief agency would be far more practical as the funds needed to support refugees lacks the money available.

Letter by Richard Heywood of Sun City

Buying and showing yellow and blue stuff to support Ukraine is noble and I am sure very much appreciated.

However, sending the money for these items to a relief agency would be far more practical as the funds needed to support refugees lacks the money available.

The Disaster Emergency Committee in the UK links 15 aid agencies supporting the Ukrainian people, and details can be found at www.DEC.ORG.UK.

Thank you for your help.
