Sunhats and a packet of Nicorette chewing gum which was out of date by two years were among contributions made to a collection in Limerick for the people of Ukraine.

The collection in recent weeks was organised by Anna Mazeika and her sister Kamila and the appeal was for military and medical items. Anna is a member of a Polish group called Pokolenie, which has assisted Ukrainian refugees since 2014.
