BOURNEMOUTH residents are being invited to donate items for people in Ukraine.
World of Love Festival said: "The Polish community in Bournemouth has started collecting donations for the Ukrainian refugees.
"They will soon be transported to Poland and distributed to individuals. A lorry will be going to Poland in a few days.
"If you would like to help, please bring to Food Plus Boscombe parcels with anything that could help those fleeing from war, mainly women and children."
The following items are needed:
- Blankets
- Sleeping bags
- Bed linen Pillows (packed in foil)
- Thermal flasks
- Soap bars
- Bedding sets
- Baby wipes
- Baby nappies
- Milk powder
- Toiletries
- Sanitary towels
- Baby milk and formula
- Towels
- New or little used clothing, especially warm
- Women's and children underwear
- Canned food
- Dry food
People are being asked to prepare the parcels in one package but separate food from other items so they don't mix.
The items can be dropped off at the Food Plus shop, 4ah, 553 Christchurch Rd, Boscombe, Bournemouth BH1 4AH, any day from 9am till 8pm or contact Help from Bournemouth to Ukraine by March 4th and they will advise you where to drop them off.
