The Shadow Armed Forces Minister has thanked volunteers for their efforts in supporting Ukraine.
Mark Francois, who is also the MP for Rayleigh and Wickford, visited the Wickford-based charity, Aid4Ukraine over the Christmas period.
The charity organises regular aid convoys to Ukraine, providing humanitarian aid, including generators, medical equipment, food, and children’s toys.
The group, led by former serviceman Steve Parker, has been making trips to Ukraine since the Russian invasion in February 2022.
Rayleigh and Wickford MP, Mr Francois said: “As the Shadow Armed Forces Minister, I am very aware of the suffering of the people of Ukraine, since the Russian invasion almost three years ago.
“I am therefore very proud to have a charity like Aid4Ukraine, based in my constituency, who are working very hard to help alleviate the situation in Ukraine and I wish them every success.”
