Liverpool millionaire to help 10,000 Ukrainian refugees fly to UK

A Liverpool man will help 10,000 Ukrainian refugees fly to the UK free of charge.

Steve Morgan, the Liverpool-born founder of housebuilder Redrow, is working as part of a scheme to allow refugees to travel from Ukraine’s neighbouring countries of Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia to the UK. It is part of the government's 'Homes for Ukraine' visa programme.

Through his charitable foundation, Mr Morgan has partnered with the airline Wizz Air and three other not-for-profit organisations – Choose Love, The Shapiro Foundation and the Ukraine Sponsorship Pathway UK (USPUK), reports BusinessLive.
