We at The BEARR Trust are deeply saddened by the invasion of Ukraine.

Our thoughts are with all our partners and their families, and of course the people they work so hard to help. We would like them to know how much we value the relationships that we have built up over the last thirty years. We remain firmly committed to improving the health and social welfare of vulnerable people throughout Eastern Europe and Central Asia. We will continue to do everything we can to support your work.
