Short Sterlings airlift refugees August 1945

Does anyone have any information about the units that airlifted 300 refugee children from Prague Czechoslovakia to RAF Crosby-on-Eden near Carlisle on 14 August 1945?

I have seen film of what look like Short Sterlings being loaded. Details on two of the aircraft:
V8oK serial TS???
ZOoQ serial LK368

Which squadron was this and who were the crews? Any other interesting details, aircraft or unit histories etc.

Mark
