Daily Mail detailed that last week the couple saw a web supplication for help from Sofiia Rastorhuieva and her beau, Illia Tronevych. They came to the UK as exiles from Ukraine somewhat recently in June.
Rastorhuieva, 19, and her beau Illia, 18, posted on Facebook that they had been approached to take off from the house they were remaining at before and needed a sanctuary home straightaway.
Thus, Garnett and Sofiia chose to impart their home to the recently shown-up outcasts.

“I am glad that Tony and Sofiia have come to help us. We were very unhappy at that place.” Rastorhuieva said.
“We have been told off for leaving doors open and letting the cats escape. It has been very hot and we were not even allowed to open the windows in case the cats escaped”
“We only had one small sofa bed to sleep on and it was very uncomfortable. We had to do their washing, the laundry, and clean the place for them. We just didn’t feel right there.”
She further added, “We had nowhere to go. We are refugees from Ukraine. My hometown is Kremenchuk the same place where the Russians killed many people last month.”

“It is very dangerous there. We knew the Russians were close and our parents asked us to leave for our safety. Illia and I went to Warsaw and then we came here at Leeds Bradford Airport.”
“We thought we would be happy, but it has been very difficult for us. We know this is a great country with nice people and we love it here in Yorkshire.”
