Amazon drone delivery — Ukrainian style! 🇺🇦☕

Amazon drone deliveries are still a pretty new concept in the UK.

In Ukraine, drones have been helping deliver supplies to difficult and dangerous positions for years.

And that got us thinking about the simple things on our Amazon Wish List.

Imagine being in the same position for weeks or even months, living in incredibly difficult conditions and barely seeing daylight.

Then a resupply arrives.

Alongside the essentials, there’s a bag of sweets. Some coffee sachets. A fresh pair of socks. Handwarmers.

Small things — but at that moment, they can mean an enormous amount.

That’s what our Wish List is about.

🧦 Socks and handwarmers are practical essentials.
☕ Coffee and chocolate bring a little comfort and help lift spirits.

Buy something today. It doesn’t have to cost much, but somewhere in Ukraine, it will mean the world to someone. 🇺🇦❤️

Evening !

Less than 24 hours after announcing Craigs car mission, the Amazon deliveries have started to arrive!

We have just over two weeks to go until they depart for Ukraine and we have lots of nooks and cranny’s in the car we can fill!

So once again, we are asking for your help!!!

Buy some coffee, some warm socks and most important, the hand and feet warmers.

We have all been “enjoying” the hot weather, but we are planning for Winter and these items are so important.

Thank you all so much!

Craig is heading back to Ukraine. 🇺🇦

On 12 September, our amazing friend and long-time volunteer Craig will set off on his next mission to Ukraine, taking two vehicles which will both be donated once they arrive.

This mission is being planned and led by Craig and his team, with Ukraine UK Aid supporting them along the way.

Our role over the next couple of weeks is simple: help make those two vehicles as useful as possible before they leave.

That means helping source supplies, supporting requests from our friends and contacts in Ukraine, and making sure Craig heads east with as little empty space as possible!

So from today, we’re pushing our Amazon Ukraine Wish List.

We’ve deliberately kept it simple, with just four things we know are always useful:

* 🧦 Socks
* 🔥 Chemical feet warmers
* 🍫 Chocolate
* ☕ Coffee sachets

They may seem like small things, but these are practical everyday items that we repeatedly take to Ukraine and that can easily be shared wherever they are most needed.

Once in Ukraine, the aid will be unloaded and both vehicles themselves will also be donated for continued use there — so this mission delivers twice: the supplies inside them, and the vehicles themselves.

After more than four years of missions, friendships and working alongside people across Ukraine, this feels like a very natural next chapter for Ukraine UK Aid.

We don’t have to be the ones driving the vehicles to continue making a difference.

Sometimes our role is simply to help good people do good things — and Craig has certainly done plenty of that alongside us over the years.

So, 12 September is the date. Two vehicles. Two donations. And plenty of space to fill before they go.

If you’d like to send something for the journey, our Amazon Wish List is here:

Every pair of socks, every warmer, every chocolate bar and every coffee sachet genuinely helps. 🇺🇦

Together on the journey, with good people.

Today, Ukraine marks its Independence Day. 🇺🇦💙💛

For us at Ukraine UK Aid, Ukraine has never been just a place on a map.

It is the people we have met, the friendships we have made, the communities that have welcomed us, and the extraordinary kindness and determination we have seen again and again over the past four years.

Independence means being free to choose your own future, to raise your family in peace, to build your community, to speak your language, and simply to live your life in your own country.

Today, we think especially of our friends across Ukraine — in Olyzarivka, Ulaniv and so many other places — who continue to work, help one another, laugh, hope and carry on, even in the hardest of circumstances.

We are proud to stand beside them, and incredibly grateful for the friendships this journey has given us.

Our hope is simple: that one day very soon, Ukraine’s Independence Day can be celebrated not under the shadow of war, but in peace, freedom and safety.

З Днем Незалежності України!

Happy Independence Day, Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Together on the journey, with good people.

Today is Ukrainian Flag Day. 🇺🇦

For us, the blue and yellow flag is much more than a national symbol.

Over the past four years, it has come to represent the people we have been privileged to know and support — friends, families, volunteers and communities who continue to live their lives, help one another and look after those around them in circumstances most of us can barely imagine.

We have seen this flag flying over towns and villages, carried by volunteers, displayed in schools, homes and workshops, and worn by people determined that their country and their communities will endure.

Behind every flag are people.

People like our friends in Olyzarivka, Ulaniv and communities across Ukraine who have welcomed us, trusted us and allowed us to walk a small part of this journey alongside them.

So today we simply send our love to our friends in Ukraine.

З Днем Державного Прапора України.

Happy Ukrainian Flag Day. 💙💛

Together on the journey, with good people.

Ukraine UK Aid – Limited Edition Supporter Patch

A patch of our own! 🇺🇦🇬🇧

We’ve produced this special embroidered patch to celebrate Ukraine UK Aid, our work supporting Ukraine and, most importantly, the incredible people who have supported us along the way.

The design brings together the Ukrainian and British flags, the Ukraine UK Aid name and one of our vehicles travelling the road between the UK and Ukraine — a journey that has been at the heart of our work for many years.

This is a genuinely limited-edition patch. Some are being kept back to give as gifts to friends, volunteers and supporters in both Ukraine and the UK, as a small thank-you for the part they have played in our story.

The remainder are available through our store for those who would like to show their support for Ukraine UK Aid and help us continue raising funds for the communities and volunteers we work with in Ukraine.

At £20, this is more than simply buying a patch. Your purchase directly supports our fundraising, while giving you something special from Ukraine UK Aid to wear, display or add to your collection.

These patches have been produced in a limited run and, once they're gone, they're gone.

Thank you for supporting our work and for being part of the Ukraine UK Aid story. 🇺🇦🇬🇧

Today we celebrate my friend Nick on his birthday.

I first met Nick many years ago through our shared love of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, long before the full-scale invasion changed all of our lives.

Since then we’ve shared experiences that neither of us could ever have imagined. We’ve travelled together, laughed together, faced some incredibly difficult days, and created memories that I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life.

To many people Nick used to be a guide in Chornobyl. To me, he is simply my friend.

He is loyal, honest, resilient and one of the most genuine people I have ever had the privilege to know.

Brother, I hope today brings you some peace, some happiness and a chance to enjoy your birthday with the people who mean the most to you.

Happy Birthday, my friend. 🇺🇦🎂🍻

🇺🇦 CHORNOBYL – THE ZONE. THE STORY. THE LEGACY.

Those of you who know me will know that the Chornobyl Zone of Exclusion has been a huge part of my life since 2013.

Looking back now, I might even say that my decision to travel there for the first time set me on a path that I could never have predicted.

Over the years I have returned many times, exploring abandoned villages, meeting the people who still call the region home, and witnessing first-hand the remarkable resilience of those whose lives have been shaped by one of history’s greatest disasters. Along the way I’ve made lifelong friends and had experiences that have changed me in ways I never imagined.

In many ways, my journey to Chornobyl ultimately led me to Ukraine itself. The friendships I built there became the foundation for everything we do today through Ukraine UK Aid. Without those first visits to the Zone over a decade ago, I genuinely don’t think our organisation would exist.

That is why these items mean so much to me.

Today I’m proud to share a small collection of Chornobyl-related items now available in our store. They include original patches, a Chornobyl jacket and other unique pieces connected with the Zone and the people who have lived and worked there.

Every purchase helps Ukraine UK Aid continue supporting communities across Ukraine, so by buying one of these items you’re not only owning a fascinating piece of history—you are also helping us continue providing practical humanitarian support where it is needed most.

If, like me, Chornobyl has always fascinated you, or you’d simply like to support Ukraine while owning something truly unique, I’d love you to take a look.

🇺🇦 All of these items are now available to purchase from our store.

Thank you, as always, for supporting Ukraine UK Aid and standing with Ukraine. 💙💛
