Just a quick reminder, to prevent unnecessary expense and delay: refugees from Ukraine do not need to apply for asylum via a solicitor or other route. The application for leave to remain has been simplified by law and is free of charge. It is unusual for UK, yes, but true!
Aid sent from local community throughout Humberside, Yorkshire and East Midlands is on the move through Poland and into Ukraine. Here is an update…I am told it is good news 😆👍🇬🇧🇵🇱🇺🇦
Today was supposed to be our final two loads, this is truck 11 ready to leave and truck 12 will not arrive until the morning. It is also looking like there might be a truck 13 by the quantity of aid still in the warehouse!
Truck ten loaded and leaving Scunthorpe tomorrow morning.
We set a target of sending ten trucks of humanitarian aid in two weeks and to battle for free and frictionless movement of aid into the EU.
It’s gone pretty well on both counts 👍🇬🇧🇵🇱🇺🇦
Truck two and three departed the UK on Friday under the now eased customs regime for humanitarian aid. Unloaded today at a warehouse near Poznan before aid is trans-shipped to Lviv or distributed amongst refugees locally. 🙌👍🇬🇧🇵🇱🇺🇦
Przemek, departed on Friday, has arrived and unloaded at Konarzewo near Poznan. The video by Łukasz Pawlak, Export General Manager at Argip Fasteners, is supporting the local distribution of aid to Ukrainian refugees and the dispatch of aid into Ukraine. More arriving tomorrow.
This is just some of 30 truck leaving today from Wrexham
Thanks to all involved safe Journey everyone

Almost loaded at Scunthorpe, these vehicles are sponsored by crop protection specialists ADAMA Ltd.whose staff across Europe have been instrumental in making this whole thing happen.
…and there they go, Pawel and Przemek on thier way to Poland, the loads will be split onto vans in Poznan for onward delivery to Lviv by Ukrainian-based charity Where Hope Lives. Thanks for the support for the team at White Eagle Club, Balham.
Our efforts just made top news story with @FarmersGuardian! Great to have support from farming media. Let's hope guidance is forthcoming to speed up aid delivery. Great pic of one of the many volunteers who help to sort aid at our Scunthorpe depot.
