The Cirencester and Malmesbury communities came together again over the weekend to show solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
As the war with Russia entered its second week, demonstrations of support were once again held.
On Friday evening a vigil was held outside Cirencester Parish Church. Mayor of Cirencester Claire Bloomer and Canon Graham Morris both spoke, with around 150 people in attendance.
Canon Morris said: "We stand together in support of the heroic acts of self-sacrifice and the supreme example of leadership provided by President Zelensky.
As well as prayers, those present were asked people to light candles to lift the darkness which has fallen over Ukraine. The church was also lit up in yellow and blue.
A #StandwithUkraine event held at Malmesbury Abbey on Saturday was also well attended.
Jackie Peel raised £335 for the Disasters Emergency Committee's Ukraine appeal through the sale of yellow and blue ribbon pins.
The pins will also be on sale at this Saturday's fundraiser - a cake sale and coffee morning being held at the United Reform Church from 9.30am-12.30pm.
"The people of Malmesbury are such a caring bunch who will come out time and time again to support good causes," said Jackie.
Further fundraisers are planned for the coming months.
