To create an archive of these documentations for future reference to ensure that all perspectives continue to be valid in the future to be studied and learnt from.

Synopsis:
As conflicts and tensions increase throughout the globe it is easy to get caught up in the propaganda from all sides and forget what is important, the human element. As the world observes the back and forth in Ukraine, the shows of force from NATO, Russia and China that risk all in an attempt to peacock in front of each other. As part of the fallout continental tensions are rising throughout Europe and its borders, in Poland, Moldova, Georgia, Serbia, Kosovo, Armenia and Azerbaijan, all having the potential to be a flashpoint.
Added to these is the real possibility of a large-scale conflict in the Middle East due to Israel's ground invasion of Gaza in response to Hamas attacks on 07/10/23, as Iran and its proxies vie for position and global recognition.

All have a commonality, innocent victims.
It is the intention of DocuAid CIC to obtain humanitarian aid in all forms, ranging from
medication, clothing, hygiene products, food and toys and share these items to those in need. Be they, genuine war refugees that have managed to escape to the U.K. or, to
refugees and innocents directly caught up in a conflict on the front line who cannot escape or have no where to go.

Uniquely, we intend to capture the voices and stories of these people on film and by photograph. They and their stories will be brought to the forefront of peoples minds through digital and social media as well as through journalism and exhibitions.
Ensuring that they are not forgotten, that their perspectives will be heard and remembered and that more is done to aid those who find themselves trapped in the
middle of tensions and conflicts.

UPDATE: Our first Aid Run to Ukraine has been confirmed for mid September 2024!! Exact date and location will remain undisclosed for security purposes.
