It was organised by PCSO Donna Ryan.
Thousands of Ukrainians have fled the country following the February 24 invasion by Russian troops. People across South Wales have joined those in the UK and across the world in providing aid supplies and monetary donations to help those fleeing the country.
The Welsh Government has also announced that Ukrainian refugees who settle in Wales will be given free rail travel for up to six months.
