The Red Cross also revealed that 180 people have - entirely unprompted - pledged spare rooms and vacant properties for Ukrainian refugees.

The Irish Red Cross is working with the Irish Refugee Protection Programme to organise accommodation for the Ukrainian refugees expected to arrive in Ireland over the coming days and weeks. In order to take part in the scheme, communities must have a strong committee in place, complete a training programme, provide funding and have access to a property. "Our programme is currently working with and accommodating refugees from Afghanistan and are currently preparing for refugees due to arrive from Lebanon." The organisation has been helping to welcome refugees for over 50 years and has helped people coming from countries such as Vietnam, Hungary, Syria and Afghanistan. The Irish Red Cross has seen over €6 million donated to their crisis appeal this week - with around €4.7m donated in just three days. As the war in Ukraine continues to rage on, people in Ireland are eager to offer assistance in any way they can.
