If you are feeling hopeless looking on at the invasion and war situation in Ukraine, you can help provide aid to those most affected.
A number of Leitrim collections have been organised to assist the people of Ukraine with some basic supplies.
Willow Beauty and Mary McEvoy in Carrick-on- Shannon have a courier company arranged that is willing to deliver donations to the Polish border to assist the people of Ukraine during these terrible times.
There is also a daily collection and drop-off point at Unit 2 Carrick Retail Park on the Sligo Road (beside Synergy) - see poster on the right.
