Liverpudlian bringing Ukrainian aid workers to Eurovision

A Liverpool man is giving a group of his fellow aid workers, who “have put their lives on hold” by assisting Ukrainian refugees, a break by helping them travel to the UK for Eurovision and a tour of Merseyside.

Tim Johnson, a 37-year-old IT consultant, is helping at least 12 aid workers – six Ukrainians and six Poles – who have worked with Ukrainians affected by war to obtain visas to attend Eurovision events in Liverpool and enjoy a tour, which will include a visit to Anfield football stadium and the Royal Liver Building.
