During almost four years of full scale war, Ukrainians have shown extraordinary courage, but they need all the help and support they can get. Humanitarian support is needed more and more as this war continues and will be needed long after it has finished.

Any support you can give will be greatly appreciated.

Ukraine urgently requires a high volume of 4x4 pickup trucks, SUVs and vans for front-line medical evacuation and humanitarian missions.

Priston to Ukraine – is a group set up by some villagers in Priston, Somerset to buy and deliver vehicles to help provide humanitarian aid.

The group (Austin Sage, Bob Copperman, David Hassard, James FA, Richard Martin, Rob Carver and Guy Davies) is fundraising to purchase and deliver vehicles for humanitarian aid for Ukraine.

They will drive these vehicles from Somerset to Ukraine in September 2026.

Once delivered, these vehicles can easily be converted into ambulances or used to distribute essential aid to the various vital support agencies.

All money raised will be via the Carmen General Charity run by The Worshipful Company of Carmen, one of the livery companies in the City of London. All money donated will be used to purchase appropriate vehicles in the UK and send them to Ukraine. By fundraising through this charity, we can ensure that it is not only reliable, but a tax efficient way for people to donate.

This will be the first trip for some of us, while some have been before. In the past we have taken minibuses, lorries and 4x4s, usually laden with aid.

Ukraine are doing an amazing job of holding onto their independence. Anything that we can do to help, however big or small, will be greatly appreciated by the people of Ukraine.

Any contribution to this cause will be gratefully received.

Thank you for your generosity, which will make a huge difference.
