Martin Roberts in Poland.

Tweet

Martin Roberts from Homes Under the Hammer, who I've mentioned before, has been over to the Poland/Ukraine border with supplies and things for the refugees. He posted his journey on his Twitter account @TVMartinRoberts and he posted this picture (above) of a little girl who had just come over from Ukraine into Poland, to which he gave the teddy she is holding. He started off on March 5 buying stuff from a shop and they would only let him have 2 bottles of Calpol even though he told them why he was buying it. 2 other customers who saw what was going on bought him another 2 bottles each! He offered to pay them for them but they refused to take it. In the video that he showed us on Twitter of him outside the shop he was in tears. Then he showed us him filling his van with stuff to take over. He introduced us to the charity he was helping to do it, and the distribution centre where they were sorting stuff out and packing it ready to go off to the Poland/Ukraine border. He showed us videos of him on every step of his journey, and included the picture above to show that the things he was taking over were getting to the people they were intended for. He also took over important stuff like heart monitors and baby monitors which were transferred to another van when he got to Poland, and they were going directly into the Ukraine for people who need them. At the end the last video he posted was of a guy at the Poland/Ukraine border with a piano, and he got him to play it. He played Imagine by John Lennon.
