Ukrainian family's new life in Weymouth

Steve Harris

Available for over a year

Nine months might not seem like a long time in the grand scheme of life. But for one Ukrainian woman now living in Dorset, it's been life-changing. Maryna and her two children fled their war-torn country and arrived in Weymouth last May. During the last nine months, Maryna's managed to find work and recently moved out of her host family's home. Our reporter Charlotte Foot first met Maryna last summer and has been to see her once again.
