Accounts and donations to UNICEF from our LifeInAbruzzo #CookForUkraine campaign

Join us on Sunday 27th March for a #CookForUkraine ‘Better Together’ fundraising lunch and day out for UNICEF.

Every little counts in regard to the situation in Ukraine, so we are going to do our best to take part in the international ‘Cook for Ukraine’ initiative, raising funds for children via UNICEF, making this happen in Abruzzo and promote fundraising events where they are appropriate across the region

The Producer of Channel 4’s ‘A New Life in the Sun’ has been in touch to say that are looking for more enterprising British ex-pats in Abruzzo for inclusion in the next series of the programme

Now’s your chance to help support Abruzzese heritage and give the rest of the world a chance to know a little more about this fascinating and dramatic part of Italy.
