Celebrate Ukraine Independence Day with Hitchin Town Hall and North Hertfordshire Museum

Tomorrow, Wednesday, (August 24) the people of Ukraine mark their Independence Day.

The date also marks exactly six months since Russia's invasion - 31 years on since declaring independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. #StandWithUkraine.

If you're from Ukraine or know anyone who is, come along to the coffee morning at Hitchin Town Hall and North Herts Museum Café (10am - 12pm).

They welcome all refugees in the local area to come and connect with others and seek support and advice from groups and representatives.
