A gifted children's clothes and bag designer and maker, with a growing reputation in the Ukraine and abroad, needs workspace in the Wells area to restart her business.

Anna is living as a guest with a family in a village outside Wells after her workshop was destroyed by the Russians when their soldiers entered Kherson early in the war. They had to abandon their home in Kherson at 4am, leaving most of their possessions behind.

Anna would like to restart her business and make a new life in England with her daughter Velina and husband Stepan. Stepan works with the UK charity World Extreme Medicine equipping and training front line soldiers to deal with medical emergencies, through their recently established offshoot, Medics4Ukraine.

The family Anna and Velina are staying with have sourced a sewing machine for Anna, but she needs workspace with a table to earn her living again.

She has already picked up a commission from the village to make some bridesmaids' dresses.
