Ukrainians in Fife invited to join Easter family meal in Kirkcaldy
Created: 13/03/2025
Ukrainian support group at Linton Lane Centre
Any Ukrainians living in Fife and their families are warmly invited to join Ukrainian support group at Linton Lane Centre, Kirkcaldy, for their Easter gathering. The Easter event takes place 12.00-2.00pm on Saturday 19 April 2025.
Address: Linton Lane Centre, Linton Lane, Kirkcaldy, KY2 6LF
The support group was established two years ago and they host monthly events to give Ukrainian citizens a place to come together for a traditional meal, a chat, and to receive welfare support and advice. Importantly, it's a place of safety where they can discuss their shared feelings of their homeland and family still there.
Linton Lane Centre became involved with the group after the centre was used as a collection point for an overwhelming local response to an appeal for donations, which were then trucked out to Ukraine.
Along with volunteers from Linton Lane and Newcraigs Church in Kirkcaldy, a meal club was set up to offer welcome and support to people who had fled to Scotland.
