Ukrainian refugees have been treated to day out to the seaside organised by the Lichfield Round Table.
The group were taken on the coach trip to Barry in Wales to help improve their wellbeing.
A spokesperson for the Lichfield Round Table said:
“Since the trip we have had many messages of thanks for the group who had a great time, telling us how they swam in the sea and flew kites.”

The visit came ahead of Ukrainian Independence Day today (24th August).
The occasion will be marked in Lichfield by a ceremony at Speakers’ Corner and at an event at The Angel Inn.
Well done Lichfield Round Table 250!
So this is how you spend the charity money. Not giving this year.
You sound nice Ivan.
Ivan……. I think it’s great that people are looking after families, wherever they are from. In the picture there are children. They have seen horrors that most of us have never seen. To give them an trip, a few of hours, of distraction is a great thing. Not many men in the picture. Why? Because they will be in the Ukraine fighting for their country, so the families can return home. Money out of peoples pockets. And specific charities have helped the Ukrainians. Surely you cannot decry this as being unfair. Really Ivan?
What a very worthwhile thing to do. This is our community at its best!
