A soon-to-open Blandford cat café is seeking a trustee.

The charitable project aims to provide a relaxing space where people can enjoy the company of cats, while also supporting a cause.

All profits from the café will be donated to help Ukrainian orphans who have lost their parents in the ongoing conflict.

The café, already supported by three trustees, requires one more to officially register as a charity.

The funds raised will go directly towards providing the children with essential items such as household goods, clothing and footwear.

A spokesperson for the café said: "At present, there are many children in urgent need of material support."

The initiative hopes to attract compassionate individuals who are interested in making a tangible difference in the lives of these children.

Those interested in becoming a trustee for the project can reach out to Julia Kobzarieva at flittingster@gmail.com.
