Our thoughts are with his family. To learn more about Tony's life, visit https://wendovernews. co.uk/news/local-face-mogford-tony/.

In addition, Ukrainian refugees have been welcomed into local homes although the process of arriving has been prolonged. The latest initiative before Wendover News goes to press is the Budgens offer to match donations £ for £. Just go to the shop and add a £can of your choice to your regular purchases. Many helpers want to give quietly but if you send details to editor@ wendovernews.co.uk, your fundraising activities can be included on our webpage wendovernews. co.uk/events, no charge.

Many Wendover people have been at the forefront of initiatives to help the people of Ukraine, not least by flying flags showing solidarity. At the very beginning (the invasion started on 24 February) there were sales to raise money to send to the Disasters Emergency Committee. Lots of smaller initiatives have happened, including schoolchildren like the above from Wendover Junior School.
