Lida, Tamara, Victor, Luda, Marfa, Anatolii, Nadia are just some of the people that NRC recently supported in one of the collective centre of Kharkiv. All of them has been recently displaced after the RF invasion in Vovchansk and Lyptsy (Northern of Kharkiv) of last May 24. The majority are elderlies with physical disabilities and few relatives to support them. NRC provided specific assistance to those in need of walking devices and an extended support in terms of household's items and clothes. The emergency response, set up by NRC straight after the relocation in the collective centres, was funded by ECHO. Since the chances of returning to their homes are remote at the moment, they are in need of multiple and prolonged assistance. NRC is there to support and strength the resilience of these people that despite all the circumstances are keeping stronger and unite; while their thoughts, stories, and expressions are filled with a mixture of joy and deep sadness. — Foto: Filippo Mancini/NRC
