Story

ONE JEEP. 2500KM. DOZENS OF LIVES SAVED.

🚙 Help Me Fund 10 Life-Saving Convoys. I’m driving 5 volunteer Jeep convoys from Scotland to Ukraine in 2026 and having just reached the first target set to enable delivery of 5 jeeps this year in awe of your belief in me and support for Ukraine I have doubled my fundraising target and committed to delivering another 5 life-saving vehicles in 2027.

In 2025 I completed and self-funded 4 trips as a volunteer driving a 4 x 4 jeep from Edinburgh to Kolomyia in Ukraine.

In 2026, I committed to driving 5 more Jeeps from Edinburgh to Ukraine and now another 5 in 2027 (approx 2,400 km per run) to deliver life-saving vehicles and aid to those who need it most - it is raw, humbling, and profoundly life-changing. Each vehicle helps extract wounded to medical safety — and each one can save up to 50 lives.

But to do it, I do need your help…so please:

💰 Donate — every pound makes a real difference.

🌍 Share — help spread the word and fuel the journey.

Each trip costs around £1,300:

• £800 toward the 4x4 (via Jeeps for Peace)

• £400 fuel from Edinburgh to Kolomyia, Ukraine

• £100 flight home

Each of my 2,400 km starts with a ferry from Knoydart driving from Mallaig to Newcastle a ferry to Amsterdam then driving through Holland, Germany, Poland and into Ukraine to hand the jeep keys direct to the military.

WHY I KEEP GOING BACK

The reason is simple: I can't not

On each trip, I’ve seen the harsh reality of conflict — rows of graves for young men and women, some the same age as my own children. Each time, we visit the Field of Mars Cemetery in Lviv to pay our respects — and each time, the number of graves has grown. Driving through small villages and towns in Ukraine I couldn't place what was different and then it hit me, the stark reality is male absence - quite simply all men are at the frontline. People just like you and I live by curfews (martial law) at night only leaving outwith those hours to reach shelters during air raids. I've stood alongside families where just one jeep can deliver home sons, brothers, fathers, uncles, grandsons, nephews and husbands to mend, rebuild or bury.

I’ve connected with the most amazing of humans, meeting survivors at the Superhuman Centre in Lviv, a world-leading prosthetics facility where soldiers and civilians with devastating injuries learn to walk, stand, and rebuild their lives. What a catastrophic impact on this generation and their families. Their courage is beyond words. Their resilience and spirit indominable. Your donation matters more than you can imagine.

I’ve witnessed the strength of mothers, children, medics, amputees, and soldiers who live with fear every single day — yet still meet us with kindness, courage, and gratitude. They are simply asking not to be forgotten.

While I have the ability to do something, I promise I will.

ABOUT JEEPS FOR PEACE

Jeeps for Peace is a group of ordinary people with an extraordinary mission — to save lives in Ukraine. So far, we’ve delivered almost 600 Jeeps, ambulances, and even a fire engine to support frontline humanitarian efforts.

Once in Ukraine, each vehicle is modified for the front line — used to deliver food, medicine, and vital supplies, evacuate civilians, and rescue the wounded. Every single Jeep directly saves lives.

EACH DRIVE

Each vehicle helps extract wounded to medical safety — and each one can save 50 plus lives.

Also on each run to Ukraine each 4 x 4 can typically carry:

• Bandages, trauma dressings, first aid kits

• Lifesaving medical equipment e.g. ultrasound machines, defibrillators

• Medicines, warm clothing, wheelchairs, crutches

BE THE DIFFERENCE

Any donation — no matter how small, it counts - your help, helps me to directly helps save lives.

This page will act as a rolling fundraising total, rather than creating a separate page for each convoy. It allows all support for my journeys to be collected in one place, making it simpler and more efficient to deliver each vehicle. I have just returned on Wed 29th April this year and my next drive is 26 June 2026.

• Please donate. Even the smallest donation adds up and makes a difference. Thank you for donating to my fundraiser.

• Just in case you know anyone who has an old 4 x 4 (roadworthy) that they might want to donate please ask them to reach out to me

• I can take all/any medical or any humanitarian supplies you might have.

•If you can share this we can do this.

Thank you so much for stepping up and standing together. This saves lives

Be the difference. Jackie
