Aldi 'refused' to let mum buy supplies to help Ukrainian refugees due to ‘lack of stock'

A mum who attempted to buy a load of nappies and sanitary pads to send to refugees on the Ukrainian border claims an Aldi worker wouldn’t let her, due to a lack of stock.

The woman, from Southend-on-Sea, said she made the decision to stock up on supplies to send to Ukrainian refugees at the Polish border after seeing messages on social media about a nearby restaurant collecting donations.

She said she went to her local Aldi with a friend on Sunday afternoon to purchase sanitary pads, wet wipes and nappies to take in as donations.
