The organisers of the event have said: “The situation in Ukraine is getting worse as time goes on.

“The courageous people of Ukraine are going through something very hard to imagine from the safety of our homes.

"That being said, we can still try our best to make a difference.

"Rather than simply keeping these people in our thoughts, let's do something to help them, even if it's something small.

“Ambulances and medical aid are urgently required to assist people caught up in the war.

"If you are unable to attend the event, you can donate .

"Every donation helps and will make a real difference to people suffering.”
