Following the russian attack on Ukraine 24 February 2022, I have worked tirelessly hosting a number of charity concerts around the country.
I recognised quite early that organising free charity concerts and events is one way to help my home country at this difficult and challenging time.
Through the first concert at St Michaels Church Macclesfield we did raised £4500 for the Red Cross and Ukrainian Embassy Fund.
Concerts at St John's Peterborough and at Brighton Unitarian Church raised £1500 for D.E.C. Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
Concert at the Romsey Abbey raised £2700 for UNICEF, and another concert at St Michaels raised £650 for Macclesfield Ukrainian Aid Collection Point and Refugees Welcome.
Through my concerts at the St Marys Totnes and Hurst Festival, we did supported Ukrainian Women's Veteran Movement and Phoenix Military Fund in Ukraine.
Clonter Theatre concert raised £4500 for Congleton Area Ukraine Support Network, and also for the Rotary International Crisis Task Force project.
I am also actively supporting Royal Northern College of Music and Royal Conservatoire of Scotland funds for Ukrainian musicians.
With kind help of St John's Peterborough, Bury Parish Church, St Michaels Macclesfield, Inverness, Melrose, Kirkcaldy music societies ,and Wellhayes Vineyard, I did raised around £7000 for Royal Northern College of Music fund since 2022.
January 2024 concerts in Inverness, Melrose and Kirkcaldy raised nearly £2000 for Royal Conservatoire of Scotland Ukrainian students fund.
