A woman from Ukraine is thankful to the people who helped her move to a new house.
Vicky Yurchenko, 37, just moved into her own place after living with a family in Worcester since 2022.
Her new home had very few things, so her previous host, Geoff Sansome, asked for help. Many people donated furniture, pots, and pans to help her.
The help was really nice because Mrs. Yurchenko is going to have another baby.
She and her daughter Kate left Kyiv a few weeks after the fighting with Russia started, leaving her husband Max behind. But, after visiting Ukraine for two weeks in the summer to see him, she became pregnant.
“He gave me a large gift for our summer vacation,” she said.
“We didn’t expect it, but we are really happy. ”
On BBC Hereford & Worcester, Mrs Yurchenko said she was surprised by how much the people living there helped her.
She got new things for her home like chairs, sofas, wardrobes, a cooker, curtains, pots and pans, plates and a TV because of people giving things.
She said, “You begin to understand and value this after going back home for visits. ”
“Our top priority is making sure it is safe. “
