Supporting Displaced Ukrainians in the Loire Valley

Ever since displaced Ukrainians have been fleeing their country due to the Russian invasion we have been helping to support a number of Ukrainian families in both practical ways like finding them accommodation and employment, but also offering a bit of respite in the form of group outings and gatherings. We organised a couple of shared picnics in the summer, and just before Christmas we arranged with the Chateau of Chenonceau to bring a group of 45 Ukrainians to see the magnificent decorations inside. The Director, Mme Laure Menier very generously offered the group free entry and they had a wonderful time.

Slava Ukraini!

We are very pleased to be doing our small bit to help people in difficult circumstances. We are particularly grateful to the Chateau of Chenonceau for their kind gesture and warm welcome.
