❗️MORE AID TO MORE PEOPLE ❗️
So we're going again, but this time we're going to take even more aid than we did before, to even more areas that need it.
Our initial plans are that we will all leave TBC on the Sunday evening, taking the overnight ferry to Hook of Holland through Stena Line UKIE. From that point we will split into three groups using our contacts:
Group 1 (3 days) - Heads to Berlin to deliver to our partner Instytut Pileckiego's Berlin donation centre which will go straight to the most vulnerable refugees in Poland
Group 2 (5 days) - Heads to Zamosc, Poland to deliver aid to Rotary Club Zamość Ordynacki with a corridor directly into Kyiv to support Ukrainians.
Group 3 (6 days) - Heads to Moldova/Romania (paperwork permitting and TBC) to deliver aid to the Moldovan refugee centres. Details to follow.

If anyone perhaps can't gather items on the donation list but wishes to give to the mission ahead, you can do so at the above link. Drivers are raising money for fuel from friends and families but this will go towards covering costs of vehicles and ferry crossings.

❗️DRIVERS WITH VANS❗️
We're able to provide an organised facility for vans to help with the humanitarian effort.
You can expect:
➖ Organised hotels and routes for you.
➖ Organised ferry crossings for you.
➖ A group of experienced drivers that have done this recently.
➖ An organised humanitarian mission with contacts to get the aid exactly where it needs to go.
➖ You will need you to self fund fuel/toll costs and anything you can put toward hotels/crossings. If there is fundraising money leftover we will distribute this for fuel/tolls.
What we need from you:
➖ You, a drivers mate (although we have drivers) and a reliable vehicle that can carry as much as possible.
➖ Be committed to getting the aid there no matter the hurdle.
➖ To be friendly & easy going. This is not an easy feat, and we may encounter stressful hurdles that involve quick problem solving, together.
➖ For you to have European breakdown cover.
➖ Be ready to go at short notice where possible.
Please contact 07538 880817 if you are interested.
