He had wanted to convert an annex in his home for refugees but that would take two years to achieve.
''I wanted to help because it was absolutely devastating watching millions of people fleeing - the bombs going off.''
The new home is open to Maria and her three kids who are aged 10, 12 and 14 who will be in the UK in coming weeks. Other refugees coming in from Ukraine are also expected to take shelter in the home for free.
Maria who is still in Western Ukraine works in anaesthetics at a Ukrainian hospital.
Housemaid gifted a new house in style
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that a housemaid named Cara was gifted a new house and an all-expense-paid trip.
The hardworking single mother of three in a well-planned surprise managed by an organization named Prank It Forward was directed to go clean a different house.
In a video shared by Daily Mail, while in the house, another lady who was part of the whole surprise set-up told Cara that there was no cleaning that needed to be done.
Instead, Cara was treated to different meal courses and tried out new wears. To Cara's shock, the keys to the apartment were handed to her.
