An incredible travel auction has just been launched to raise vital funds for refugees fleeing the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

The Ukraine Travel Auction offers almost 50 fantastic trips to bid on, with all proceeds going to the Disaster Emergency Committee for Ukraine.

In total, the trips are worth over £100,000, ranging from glamping holidays in the UK to some of the world’s most luxurious destinations.

The trips were generously donated by travel and hospitality industry players, with a minimum bid price of 40% of their original value.

The mastermind behind this brilliant initiative is that of Kathryn Brierley, founder and CEO of The Healthy Holiday Company and in:spa retreats. She encouraged her network of contacts in the travel industry to get involved.

“Like everyone else, I watched the news and felt like I really wanted to do something to help,” Brierley said.

“The amazing work being done by the #cookforukraine movement really inspired me to reach out to my travel industry partners to see if they wanted to join forces and set up an awesome travel auction where we could reassure people that make every penny count.”
