JK Rowling has launched an emergency appeal to aid children trapped in orphanages in Ukraine. Her Lumos Foundation is raising money to provide food and hygiene and medical kits to those affected by the conflict, as well as helping to support their evacuation from the country.
Money raised will also go to providing psychological support to children impacted by the conflict, and supporting families and foster carers.
The Harry Potter author, 56, tweeted: "War shatters childhoods and tears families apart. @lumos has launched an appeal to help the c100k children trapped in orphanages in #Ukraine."
