While Ukraine is going through a massive crisis, people from all over the world continue to show love and support to the people of Ukraine. A lovely couple from the UK repainted their house according to the colors of Ukraine’s flag.
Michael & Rend Platings are from Cambridge, UK. They decided to speak up and show support to Ukraine in more ways than one – by painting their house yellow and blue.

Rend Platings spoke about how the couple decided to do it:
“It was my husband’s idea.”
“He just assumed other people would have done it anyway.”
“He sent me a WhatsApp with some tubs of paint, two five-litre tubs that he bought, and said ‘How about we paint the house, what do you think?’”
“I said ‘That would be amazing’.”
She continued:
“One of my best friends is there now and she’s just heartbroken,”
While her husband, Michael Plating, also spoke:
“I find social media to be impermanent.”
“This could be something that carries on longer than the average attention span on Twitter.”
“It’s really not about us but people have said they’re proud to be our friends.”
“People in Ukraine have appreciated the support that they’re getting from everyone all over the world.”

It’s wholesome and empowering to see so many people from around the world play their part to show support to the hundreds and thousands of suffering families in Ukraine. According to the couple, their neighbors have been very supportive in their endeavors.
We truly hope the situation in Ukraine gets better and all of those families get their lives back.
