'Flowers for Ukraine with Shane Connolly’, a flower-filled online Ukraine fundraiser supported by Flowers from the Farm is taking place at 7pm on Wednesday, 6th April, in aid of the British Red Cross Society’s Ukraine Crisis Appeal.
Connolly is hoping to raise over £10,000 in under 2 weeks and attract an online audience of over 1,000, each donating £10+ watch his foam-free spring demonstration of seasonal, local, British spring cut flowers donated by Flowers from the Farm growers. Every single penny donated will go straight to the Appeal. Since the first post appeared online late yesterday, nearly £4,000 has already been donated on the dedicated Justgiving page.
