Leader of Castle Point Borough Council, Cllr Andrew Sheldon has reiterated the local authorities support for the Governments proposals to assist the humanitarian crisis in the Ukraine including the newly announced ‘Homes for Ukraine’ scheme.
As a result of Putin’s devastating, indefensible invasion, we are now facing the greatest crisis in Europe since the end of the Second World War. This Government is determined to do everything in their power to help those fleeing heart-breaking scenes that we never thought to see again on the Continent.
The ‘Homes for Ukraine’ scheme will allow Ukrainians (and their immediate family members) with no family ties to the UK to be sponsored by individuals or organisations who can offer them a home such as a spare room or unoccupied residential self-contained unit.
