The best way to support the aid appeal for Ukrainian refugees fleeing the war is to donate money directly to the Disasters Emergency Committee’s Ukraine Humanitarian appeal. You can donate at https://donation.dec.org.uk/ukraine-humanitarian-appeal

Funds are already being used by DEC charities inside the invaded nation and at its borders to provide people fleeing the war with food, water, medical assistance, protection and trauma care.

The DEC said the message from aid workers was that money was needed rather than specific donated items, which are often not necessarily what people require and are difficult to transport.

However, if you have clothes, toiletries and other essentials that you want to donate, there are local  collection points:

C Four Paws, a pet transport business in Chesterfield, is looking for donations of the following items, which the company will drive over the Polish and Ukrainian border to those in need:
