COVID19: Fundraising for Uzbekistan

Dear members of British-Uzbek Society,

Considering current situation in the world, and in particular in Uzbekistan, around the spread of COVID-19 virus, the British-Uzbek Society is supporting the global fundraising initiative – “Solidarity with Uzbekistan” to help most vulnerable parts of the society to cope with the pandemic. The funds will be directed to medical and social needs of the people affected by the COVID19 pandemic.

We would kindly ask each of you to show your support by either making a contribution or by spreading the word. Please follow to the below trusted platform https://www.gofundme.com/f/covid19-solidarity-with-uzbekistan

The funds will be collected through the above gofundme page, transferred to the account of Bilim Uzbek Cultural and Educational Centre and transferred to those in need in Uzbekistan. As a registered charity in the UK, Bilim has an obligation to report each collection and expenditure firstly to you and also to the regulators. Therefore, full transparency and information about expenses and results of this campaign will be provided on Facebook page: www.facebook.com/groups/covid19uz

We sincerely hope that our common efforts will help the ones in need, including medical personnel involved in the fight with the epidemic, help them to overcome all the difficulties and return to the normal life as soon as possible.

This initiative is supported by the Embassies of Uzbekistan in the UK and other European countries, Bilim Uzbek Cultural and Educational Centre, which is a registered charity in the UK, and other organisations.

We thank each one of you who will respond to this plea.

Corona virus 2020: important announcement

After careful consideration the Executive Committee of British-Uzbek Society has decided to cancel the activities planned in March, April, and May. This decision follows the decision of the Embassy of Uzbekistan in London to cancel their annual Navruz party, and that of the British Embassy in Tashkent to postpone the UBTIC meeting scheduled to take place in London in May. When both the British and Uzbek governments have announced that participation at public events no longer involves any risk of passing on or contracting Corona virus we will resume our activities.
