Gaan The Distance For Ukraine Appeal

 

Gaan The Distance For Ukraine is a collaborative effort by The Orcadian and McAdie & Reeve, aiming to deliver at least an arctic lorry load of vital supplies from Orkney to Ukrainian refugees who have fled their homes.

 

Employability Orkney/Restart Orkney want to help in anyway we can so are offering to collect items from folk who can’t get to a local drop off point. We have set areas for each day and will try to accommodate everyone the best we can.

 

Here is a list of items the appeal is looking for:

• Clothing (small amount)

• Mattresses (in clean good condition)

• Bedding

• Pillows

• Sleeping bags

• Sanitary products

• General toiletries

• Hats, scarves and gloves

• Toys for children

• Blankets

• Baby items such as nappies and wipes

• Baby clothing

 

Unfortunately, due to regulations, strictly no food, water or medicine can be accepted.

 

Please can all boxes and bags be labelled with Gaan The Distance for Ukraine appeal.
