'We just want to go home'

As we mark the first anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a growing community of refugees are waiting and hoping for the end of the war so they can return home.

Initially local hosts were asked to open their homes to refugees for just six months, but now there is no immediate end in sight.

Helen McCarthy has been to visit Sally and Stephen Bailey in Countesthorpe who have offered their home to three generations; Yuliia and Volodmyr Kalenyk, their 8 year old daughter Paulina and Yulia's Mum Larissa.
