Story
Three trucks of aid have been successfully delivered from Ireland into refugee Reception Centres in Poland & Romania. We saw first-hand how the delivery of aid is almost immediately in the hands of people arriving at the centres. Thank you so much for your support in getting this aid to the people who need it.
On Monday 21st March we are planning another journey to get a further three trucks from the UK to the Ukrainian border. This time, the donated aid will be delivered to a rendezvous point directly on the Ukrainian border and then transferred into Ukraine to support the people who are unable to escape the on-going war.
Fly By Nite have generously donated two trucks and trailers, and over 30 of their drivers responded to our request for volunteers to drive to the border. The LSO has donated the third truck.
We have had an amazing response and exceeded our original target of £6000. As the red tape of moving aid through Europe is simplified, our costs were less than we had anticipated and the remaining money gives us the foundation to almost cover the costs of this second journey.
We would like to ask for your help once again to raise the remaining £2500 needed to meet the costs of this second journey.
Please share this far and wide, and know that every penny given will go directly to ensuring this desperately need aid gets to the people who need it.

3 years agoWith your money we have managed to send 4 articulated trucks & 1 large van with over 50 tons of Aid worth circa £200,000 to help the people of Ukraine. None of this would have been possible without your generous support. We are planning to arrange further aid to be delivered into Ukraine in the next 6-8 weeks. I will keep you updated, and we really hope you can all support this work again soon. All of the work has been undertaken by volunteer drivers, therefore all of the money you have donated has been spent on fuel, ferries and tolls.

3 years agoDear all We have sent a small van packed with high value medical aid into the Ukraine over the Easter Weekend. We delivered the aid into Liviv and Zolochiv in the east of the country, where it was desperately needed. We saw first hand how the unjustified Russian act of aggression has affected the country.
