A charity working to take a group of more than 50 orphaned Ukrainian children to safety in Scotland says it wants to turn the “trauma” they have experienced into “an adventure they’ll remember for the rest of their lives”.
Dnipro Kids had hoped to be able to fly the 52 orphans – who are aged between one and 18 – and their carers from Warsaw in Poland to London on Monday, before taking them north to Scotland later in the week.
However, their flight on Monday was unable to take off after a key piece of paperwork was not provided in time and they are now expected to arrive later this week.
