The relief flight, donated specially for the journey, departed Heathrow airport for Warsaw at around midday on Wednesday (23 March), loaded up with thermal blankets, hygiene packs, medical and surgical supplies, PPE, and medicines.
After dropping off the vital supplies, the children – aged between two and 17 – will board and fly back to the UK, with the flight due to arrive into Heathrow at around 8pm. The children and their guardians will then travel to Callander in Stirling, Scotland, where they will spend their first few weeks in the UK.
