Piers's fundraiser for Ukraine Charity (Medical Life Lines Ukraine)

Piers Benbow is raising money for Ukraine Charity

Raising money to buy, recondition and deliver an ambulance to Ukraine · 22 March 2026

Ukraine Charity was established in the UK by volunteers in 2007 to support disadvantaged children and young adults in Ukraine. Since full-scale Russia`s invasion in February 2022, Ukraine Charity is also fundraising for emergency medical supplies to be delivered to Ukraine.

Story

In March 2026 I’ll be driving a reconditioned ambulance, packed with medical supplies, as part of a five‑vehicle convoy taking urgently needed aid to Ukraine with the charity Medical Life Lines Ukraine.

Working with the Ukrainian Ministry of Health, they source, repair and deliver ambulances directly to hospitals and emergency services on the frontline, where over 50,000 Ukrainians have already lost limbs and Russian drone strikes continue to destroy vital medical infrastructure.

It costs £25,000 to buy, recondition and deliver a single ambulance; as one of two volunteer drivers for our vehicle, I must help raise at least £14,000 towards that total.

Time is short before our March departure, so I’m asking for your support – any donation, large or small, will directly help get a functioning ambulance and life‑saving kit to where it is desperately needed. Thank you so much for anything you can give.
