A FLINTSHIRE-based choir has collected over £3,000 in support of the people of Ukraine.

Since the war with Russia broke out in Ukraine, millions of people have fled the country seeking safety and sanctuary in places such as North Wales.

Flintshire Council is currently calling on residents to offer Ukrainian refugees a place to stay.

And one choir based in the county has recently done its bit to support the refugees.
