Thanks to our wonderful readers, our campaign to raise money for the victims of the horrific war in Ukraine has raised more than £10,000 so far.

Last week, we launched the Newsquest #ThereWithUkraine appeal to help support those affected by the war in Ukraine.

On Thursday, March 17 we launched our campaign in aid of the Red Cross DEC Ukraine Humanitarian appeal, to help those in need. 

We set up a JustGiving page, which has now passed £10,000 thanks to the generosity of our readers. 

So far, we have raised £10,295 for The British Red Cross Society and hope to do much more in the coming weeks. 

Every penny counts - we've had donations from £2 to £1,000 - and any contribution, large or small, will make a big difference. One selfless person even donated their entire month's state pension!

There is still more we can do and we're asking for your help even further as the war rages on. 

Our JustGiving page is a single appeal across all our news titles and we will continue to highlight the heroic actions of our communities who are doing all they can to help Ukrainians. 

All the money raised will go to the British Red Cross Society DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

Clacton and Frinton Gazette: Thankyou to the 102 named and 92 anonymous donors who helped our campaign to its first £10,000!

The British Red Cross is involved in humanitarian work in Ukraine, helping the civilians who have been affected by the ongoing crisis.

Your donation could help someone affected get food, water, first aid, medicines, warm clothes, and shelter.
