Conflict in Ukraine: How you can help

The current conflict in Ukraine is heart-breaking with thousands of people forced to leave their homes fearing for the safety of their families and the humanitarian crisis is growing with large numbers of people needing urgent help.

The Council has started to work with partner organisations to support those impacted by the conflict and families have now started to arrive to live with Host households. The Denbighshire UK Resettlement Team are working with all involved to support resettlement over the coming months.

If you are interested in becoming a Host household, you can find more information here >>> https://www.gov.uk/register-interest-homes-ukraine

Any local volunteer groups or individuals that wish to offer other kinds of support can contact us by emailing ukresettlement@denbighshire.gov.uk

Welsh Government are also asking businesses for help.

Please find below a link for any business or organisation that can offer help with the following:

  • Large scale accommodation for refugees and their families, such as hotels and holiday parks
  • transport, such as coaches and minibuses (you may not need to provide drivers) to take people to their new homes
  • supplies, such as clothes, toiletries and sanitary products
  • language lessons
  • employment and training
  • translators and interpreters

As a Council, we will continue do everything in our power to help those who need it during this ongoing crisis.
