About us

UK Refuge was founded by two friends who shared a common desire to help the people of Ukraine in their dreadful plight. Travelling to the Ukraine and taking up arms wasn't an option and dropping off blankets to the local church didn’t feel like enough.

We thought about how comfortable we were in our own homes and that ordinary people were being forced to leave theirs with nowhere to go. We realised that we could put a roof over a refugee's head and make a real difference to someone's life. 

With the collaboration of the generous people at Fishfinger.me and Maya.agency, Ukrefuge.com was launched.
