Story
We are a garden centre near Penrith in Cumbria. We have links with both Ukraine and Poland and have already made two journeys to the village we support in Poland to take aid for the Ukrainian families who have fled there.
Having seen the way the war in Ukraine is progressing we now want to support the Ukrainian emergency services who are doing an incredible job helping both civilian and military casualties. A number of organisations have already taken ex NHS ambulances to Poland for onward shipment to Ukraine. We want to do the same and have already made the contacts to do so.
We just need your help now to raise the money for the vehicle itself. Our garden centre business will pay for the fuel and ferry to get there, as we have done with our previous trips. We have volunteer drivers too. Thank you for your support and please follow our progress here and on facebook. https://www.facebook.com/thepotplacegardencentre

1 month agoWe’ve passed 15% already! Thanks for all your support so far. We’ve been busy looking at possible vehicles but nothing bought so far. We have had great support from Medical Aid Ukraine- North East who have offered to provide enough medical items to fill the ambulance once we’re ready to go. Please keep the donations coming we’ve made an amazing start 😀
