Support for Ukraine 

Here at St Mark’s we have, during 2022, provided information to both our church members and our community about practical ways that we can support Ukrainians in this country. However, we have decided that we shall no longer be running any events such as coffee mornings and meals as there is now plenty of provision in Sheffield.

On the other hand, we have decided to maintain the various support resources we put together last year on the website.

If you still want to explore the option of registering as a host, you may find it useful to visit resetuk.org or its partner Sanctuary Foundation. You can also read more on the Church of England Ukraine page here.

We also produced a number of documents – though some of these may now contain information that is out of date.
