Hello everyone,

Our local communities have supported Somerset Aid for Ukraine (SAFU) exceptionally well for just over a year now.
This winter in Ukraine is likely to be the most challenging yet.
Kyiv has experienced some of the heaviest bombing, in recent weeks, since the war began. There are real fears that the main infrastructure supplying heat, electricity and water will continue to be targeted and may not survive the harsh winter. To help keep Kyvi's elderly citizens safe they are being urged to move into other towns and villages. Many women and children in community Hubs are working together making bags, stretchers and various equipment for soldiers.
So if you have any unwanted sewing machines, cottons, materials of all sorts including heavy duty calico or canvas; zips, "hooks and eyes", sewing, knitting or crochet needles, Wool and strong canvas bags/backpacks.

The following aid continues to be urgently required:
Dry and tinned Foods; Blankets & Duvets; Bedding; Medical supplies - dressings, plasters, rolls of cling film, bandages; Incontinence Pants; Basic toiletries - soap, toothpaste and brushes, sanitary towels,shampoo & conditioner and razors; Sleeping bags and roll mats; Pots and Pans; Microwaves; Slow cookers; Cutlery and crockery; Camping stoves (no gas); Candles; Heaters; Hand and foot warmers; Hot Water bottles; Pet food; Wellingtons and walking boots.

Please bring your donations to Stonebridge Farm, Wolvershill Road, Banwell. BS29 6DR every Saturday between 10.00.a.m. and 3.00.p.m
Mobile: 07983533944

Thank you.

Hello Everyone,
Thank you, for so many fabulous donations, including the monetary ones, during the last few weeks.
There have been so many people again within Banwell and the wider communities of Winscombe, Sandford, Clevedon, Congresbury, Worle and Weston who continue to support Somerset Aid For Ukraine (SAFU).
As we watch the relentless bombing in civilian areas by Russia it is clear how much support the Ukrainian people need.
Four van and carloads of aid were taken to Bridgwater last week, but without financial donations items cannot be transported to Ukraine.
So, if you can spare just £5.00 it can all adds up and can make a considerable difference. Please make your financial donations using this website: https://gofund.me/518222a7 But remember to zero the Tip.
The following items are a priority: Dry and tinned foods; bedding; medicines and medical items e.g. dressings, bandages( especially for burn victims), rolls of clingfilm, full body wipes, burn gel and standard off the shelf medications; incontinence pads; cooking equipment; pots & pans; cutlery; toiletries; washing detergents and pet food.
Unfortunately, currently due to lack of storage space we cannot accept any large medical aids e.g. wheelchairs; walkers; crutches - any tools, clothes or tents.
So many in the Army of knitters and crocheters have continued to make blankets during this very hot weather and are running out of wool.
If you have any unwanted wool please donate at Stonebridge Farm.
We are open to receive donations every Saturday 10.00 a.m - 3.00.p.m at Stonebridge Farm, Wolvershill Road, Banwell. BS29 6DR
Thank you to everyone who continues to support Somerset Aid For Ukraine (SAFU).

Hello Everyone,

A big "Thank You" to so many people who brought some marvellous donations last week - but especially to Banwell Mothers' Union; many Winscombe residents; Lydia at the BUPA Nursing Home in Clevedon and Suzanne. Apologies if I have missed anyone.....

We have received, on your behalf, a wonderful certificate from Iryna, Norbert and their colleagues "Let's Believe Everything Will Be Good" in Ukraine. It is down to the fantastic support from so many people in Banwell and the wider locality of villages, towns and countryside areas that enables so many donations being sent from Stonebridge Farm to Bridgwater and directly into Ukraine.

There is a lorry departing from Bridgwater this Saturday so Pam will be taking another van load to get your donations to where they are desperately needed.

As usual, we are open at Stonebridge Farm, Wolvershill Road, Banwell. BS29 6DR this Saturday between 10.00 a.m. - 3.00.p.m.to receive your donations.

Thanks to everyone for your continued support.

A special "Thank you" must go to the members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Weston, who through their Helping Hands Programme held a day for members from Weston, Bristol and beyond, to bring donated items and box them all ready for Pam to collect. It was a huge effort and we are very grateful to Cathy for getting everything organised for the day.

All donations continue to be desperately needed, but especially electric scooters and wheelchairs; bedding and sleeping bags; Towels; Incontinence pants; medical aid; food and toiletries.
Thank you, also to the person who is posting knitted woollen squares, they are being added to others for some fabulous blankets, ready for when winter comes.

We are open for all donations, except clothing and shoes, again this Saturday between 10.00 and 3.00.p.m at Stonebridge Farm, Wolvershill Road, Banwell BS29 6DR.

Thank you, for your continued support.

Hello Everyone,
We received so many wonderful donations again last week ranging from food to medical items and medicines; Incontinence pants and sanitary wear to bedding and toiletries to tools.
Thank you so much to both new and regular doners who continue to surprise us with their magnificant generosity.

Sadly again this week Ukraine was subject to so many Drones and missiles, but according to some reports the Ukrainian Army are defending their country with new technology and a strong will to survive - Russia is certainly not having it all their own way.

We are open to receive your donations every Saturday between10.00 until 3.00.p.m at Stonebridge Farm, Wolvershill Road, Banwell. BS29 6DR. - Thank You

With best wishes,

Hello Everyone,

Sadly Mum (Betty) passed away peacefully on Monday after a short stay in hospital.
Mum was the instigator in collecting Aid for Ukraine here at the farm. Having grown up during the second world war she was all too aware the impact of war has on people and their lives. She would say "we just can't sit here and do nothing, we have to do what we can".
We will continue with Mum's legacy and hope that you will also help in bringing donations. The priority list will be posted next week.

We are remaining closed this Saturday 9th May but will reopen again on 16th May between 10.00.a.m and 3.00.p.m for donations.
