NEW BEGINNINGS CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR TO 30TH APRIL 2023
It has been a turbulent and sad year for our Charity with the
continuing war in Ukraine and the sudden death of our founder
Pat Harrison MBE. Pat was a remarkable woman and her
passing in December has been a great loss to us all. She was
unique and irreplaceable.
Since the Russian troops retreated from Kyiv our Genesis House
family decided to leave the Czech Republic and return home to
Genesis House where they appear to be relatively safe with
only the occassional Russian drone flying by. Oleg and Natalia
are much happier now the family are back together in Ukraine
irrespective of the potential danger. We are supporting them
and monitoring the situation.
would like to pay tribute to Andrey & Oleysa Donsky for all the
hard work they have done in arranging to bring families to our
area through the 'Homes for Ukraine, scheme. l am pleased to
report that most of our families are well settled and have jobs
and no longer need as much support. Our thanks are also due
to David Miles and Mhairi Helme for their work with the
families particularly on the social side and dealing with any
problems relating to accommodation.
We are now concentrating our efforts and funds on helping
families with children in Ukraine escape the horrors of war. We
are providing food and financial support through Ivan our

Ukralnlan trustee who Ilves In Kylv to families who have lost
everything* their homes and livelyhood and fled north to
escape the tonflict with barely nothing except the clothes they
are wearing. knis Is a never endlng task and we are very
grateful for all the support and donations we have been
receiving to help us in our mission to help the weakest and
most vulnerable children in Ukraine survive.
