Performing arts students are donating all proceeds from a cabaret show to support families fleeing the war in Ukraine.
Each year second-year students put together a cabaret show at a city centre venue as part of their performing arts degree at the University of Sunderland. This year's event, taking place at The Peacock, in High Street West, will showcase their talents in areas such as comedy, music and burlesque.
Usually, any money raised from the annual cabaret is ploughed back into funding other student performances. But this time, the group decided the money should go towards charities supporting people affected by the war in Ukraine.
