Gedling MP Tom Randall is in Poland to speak with politicians about Ukrainian refugees and said officials were full of praise for the UK about the aid they were offering.

Mr Randall is visiting Gdańsk and Warsaw over the coming days to see Ukrainian refugee centres.

During his visit he said he plans to help with some project work at a refugee centre and meet Polish government officials.

Mr Randall said: “The visit, I hope, will give me a better understanding of the situation on the ground here in Poland.

“Yesterday I flew into Gdańsk and met the Governor of Pomerania to hear about the work that has been going on in his region. He particularly praised the UK for their generous help with aid.”

Earlier this week, ambulances entered Ukraine containing aid from Carlton and Netherfield.

Regulars at pubs in both towns made the donations, with over 100 bags of essential items being collected for those hiding from Russian shelling.
