Ukrainian culture is full of various holidays and traditions. Some of them date back to pre-Christian times.

Ivan Kupala is a traditional Slavic holiday that existed long before the baptism of Kyivan Rus. Kupala was one of the annual mermaids, which began on the day of the solstice in June. The last day - Horpina Kupalnytsia fell on July 6, and Kupala began after lunch and lasted all night.

Cold Coffee / Холодна кава - Kupala

Homestart Butser and its 80 volunteers supported 263 families and 365 people in the last year.

They raise all their own funds. 

For one week only -  from 3 to 10 December -  every pound donated to them that week  is doubled by another organisation. 

Put the date in the diary; whatever you donate that week (and that week only) is doubled - making your generosity even more valuable to them.

Homestart’s Nicola Winter spoke to Mike Waddington about  the Big Give Challenge and their work across Petersfield and surrounding areas, to give families facing difficulties practical help.
