My son-in-laws parents have sponsored two young women and their sons(11 and 15) from this region. They picked them up from Luton Airport last Friday evening and took them home to Kent. They slept for twelve hours that night.
They left with one small case each - think marginally bigger than a cabin case - containing their lives and spent several weeks living in a school gymnasium in Poland. They speak Russian but no English yet. The boys are quiet and, not unexpectedly, mature beyond their years.
It is heart breaking to see their area being decimated and knowing they, too, are watching it.
