Welsh donations for Ukraine refugees 'overwhelming', says organiser
"We have collections from all over, south Wales, north Wales, we've lost the plot from where in Wales," said Ms Jarczak, 40, who runs the Women of Newport group, which organised the collection.
She is from Ukraine but lives in Cardiff, and doesn't want to be named to protect her family's safety. She fled Ukraine with her mother, but said her grandmother, uncle and aunty had to stay as they are Ukrainian nationals. "We had no way of getting them out," she said.
