Canterbury for Ukraine (C4U) is a registered charity, which started in March 2022 as an initiative of local volunteers, charity organisations and local businesses who work together to support Ukrainian families coming to the Canterbury District (Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay and surrounding villages) in their search for safety after escaping the atrocities of war in Ukraine. (Reg. №1204746)
