The company, which has cancelled all trips to Russia until the end of June, has since decided to stop all sales to the country.

It has also donated to the Red Cross and collated a selection of ways its team members have been helping to support the cause, including donating essential items to a local church in Farnborough needed for refugees crossing into Poland.

Explore staff are also working within their own communities to gather items in partnership with schools and community centres.
