Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure voluntary aid to Ukraine reaches its right destination.

The UK's humanitarian support to Ukraine is delivered through a coordinated system to provide the most value for both the Ukrainian people and the British taxpayer. Outside of this, cash donations through established and well-coordinated emergency response appeal mechanisms, such as the Disaster Emergency Committee, are the most effective way to support populations in crisis. We encourage UK companies wishing to make in-kind donations to explore opportunities through existing partnerships with the United Nations, the Red Cross or Non-Governmental Organisations; or to reach out to established registered charities on The Charity Commission and Fundraising regulator website at GOV.UK.
