Who are Carmen?
Carmen are first and foremost a Fellowship, bringing together different professional disciplines and individual interests.
Carmen’s Ukraine appeal is operated by The Carmen General Charity (Charity Number 120722), which was set up to help people affected by the Russian aggression. It works closely with groups in Ukraine as well as those in the UK who have similar objectives.
The Ukrainians that we work with let us know what items they need most, and we try to provide them. Those needs can change over time (depending mostly on where and what Russia is attacking), but there is a constant requirement for 4×4 vehicles – in particular, pick-up trucks.
It’s not just Ukraine we are helping; a large number of Ukrainian people living in the UK also need help. Help with language skills, setting up for their new life, British culture, form filling etc. The Carmen Benevolent Trust has given £5,000 to a Ukrainian Saturday School at All Saints Primary School in Barnet, an organization that does just that. Our contribution covers over a third of their expenditure on teachers, the venue, and teaching materials.
