'Before the war, I had a very successful business in travel and immigration services for Ukrainians. I didn't expect to use these skills in Ireland helping Ukrainians as refugees,' Tetiana Schevchenko says. She is speaking about her job as a duty manager at an accommodation centre for more than 300 Ukrainians in Co Meath.In August, after moving around different parts of Ireland three times with her 15-year-old son, Schevchenko met an Irish man who offered her a job at Gormanston Park, Co Meath, where rooms for two to 10 people are now being used to house Ukrainians fleeing the war.
