Volodymyr Karpynec (1949-2024)


It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Volodymyr Karpynec, a beloved and dedicated long standing member of the Ukrainian Youth Association in Great Britain.


Vlodko had an inspiring presence in our community and was a true patriot. He lived by CYM’s principles and values and was totally focussed, consistently leading by example through his unwaverin commitment to CYM GB and our Oselia Tarasivka. His leadership, honesty, passion, and forthright views left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of working with him.


As a long-standing member of the National Executive Committee, Vlodko served as Finance Officer, Deputy Chair, and was also Chair of the CYM World Executive Auditing Committee. In recent years, he quietly and unnoticed continued his invaluable work behind the scenes, offering advice to the National Executive Committee and overseeing projects and improvements at Tarasivka as Finance Officer for Hospoda.


Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with Vlodko’s family, friends, and all those whose lives he touched. His loss will be greatly felt by all.


While his passing is a great loss from our ranks, it also leaves an immeasurable void in the wider Ukrainian community, Vlodko’s legacy will live on forever!


Тихо Спи, без тривог, Вічная пам’ять.
