    Story

    Sussex to Ukraine Trauma Aid

    The aim of this urgent fundraiser is to provide emergency trauma first aid kits and medical supplies for individuals & small units defending their homeland in Ukraine, along with civilians caught up in the conflict.

    Rapid lifesaving treatment is vital for those suffering battlefield wounds such as those from shrapnel and gunshots, many affecting the chest cavity or causing haemorrhage – immediate use items such as tourniquets and chest seal dressings, along with pocket face masks, artificial airways & AED’s will all help save lives.

    Many of both those ‘civilian army’ personnel on the ground, alongside non-combatants, will not have access to these kits when they desperately need them. Each ready to go trauma pack costs over £170 - it is hoped to raise enough for over 40 of these, supplemented with other lifesaving equipment, and we aim to deliver as many of these items to those who need them in the Ukraine theatre, as soon as possible.

    This limited duration appeal will enable us to get aid to where it is needed urgently.

    One extra life saved has to be the right thing to do…..

      Left the UK Sat 12/3 + delivered vital lifesaving kit to the Hospitallers paramedics in Poland - this went straight to the units at the frontline in Kyiv, Sumy, Kharkiv + Mariupol via Lviv. Supplies & donations for the Ivano-Frankivsk Children's hospital also provided. I then moved to the Medyka border crossing where I both assisted charities supporting refugees as they crossed from Ukraine + provided transport to those moving onto Polish cities + towns, + journeys further afield. To all my donors, thank you so much - Stand With Ukraine 🙏🇺🇦

      Thanks to all of you for helping this appeal reach it's initial target. We can supply & send the medical supplies that we promised to help those injured on & near the frontline in Ukraine. Now, the city of Ivano-Frankivsk in the south-west of Ukraine has been attacked for the first time - the director of the Regional Children's Clinical Hospital had already made an appeal for supplies due to the influx of refugees - now this situation is critical. If you can help, I'll be fulfilling as much of their list as possible before travelling out. TY M

The 40 trauma kits have been ordered and any additional funds will be used to purchase additional medical supplies. Thank you all for your donations and a final push will hopefully see us meet our target. Keep sharing and caring please. 🙏🇺🇦
