(Picture: PA Wire)The Government’s Homes for Ukraine scheme, which allows for British people to provide accommodation for refugees fleeing the Russian invasion, opens today.
Some 150,000 Britons, including many in the capital, have signed up to welcome strangers and soon-to-be friends into their spare rooms. It is a testament to the big-hearted response in this country to Russia’s invasion, which includes nearly £200 million raised for the Disasters Emergency Committee.
