Ayrshire's renowned literary event, The Boswell Book Festival, will return next month with a unique launch event in aid of a special cause.
Critically acclaimed writer of long and short fiction, non-fiction and plays, Catherine Czerkawska will join with Ukrainian refugee, Liudmila Proniakina, to raise £3,000 for the Rotary Club Ukrainian Crisis Taskforce.
The world’s only Festival of Biography and Memoir will host the event on May 12 where two refugee stories, one current and one historical, will be shared with visitors.
