Supporting the people of Ukraine one year on

On 24 February the world united in solidarity with the many Ukrainians who lost their homes and loved ones due to the Russian invasion.

Over the past 12 months the Royal Borough of Greenwich together with local organisations, and the Homes for Ukraine sponsors, has supported the people of Ukraine, welcoming over 600 people.

With the ongoing war we know increased support for the people of Ukraine is vital and with continued support from resident sponsors, we hope to open our community to additional Ukrainians to help them settle into the borough to start a new life without the threat of persecution.

Check if you’re eligible to sponsor a resettler and help provide them with the safety they need: royalgreenwich.gov.uk/support_for_people_from_ukraine
