The Dexam Trust donates to the Disaster Emergency Committee

The Dexam Trust have made a considerable donation to The Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal led by the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) in an attempt to support those whose lives are threatened in Ukraine.

The DEC brings together 15 leading UK aid charities to raise funds quickly and efficiently at times of crisis overseas. Pooling their resources to work as one, they are pivotal in co-ordinating the UK public's response to overseas disasters, getting aid to people who need it, fast.

The Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal has reached £200 million in the two weeks since it was launched - the equivalent of £3 for every person in the UK.

“This amazing total shows what’s possible when we all come together as charities, as communities, as a country, to help people who are facing unimaginable hardships," said Sue Inglish, DEC Chair of Trustees. "Thank you so much to everyone who has leant their support to 
this appeal."

The Dexam Trust was set up by Dexam to support the local community and those in need. Bryony Dyer, Dexam’s Managing Director, said: “The intense conflict in Ukraine continues to force people to flee their homes and cross the border into neighbouring countries. We are a people-orientated company and in times of crisis, we do what we can to support those who need it the most through the Dexam Trust. The DEC are helping people with their immediate needs while also planning to support refugees and displaced people over the coming months and years.”
