Story

Alastair Gray and his co-driver Paul Earnshaw are on a mission to provide vital support to Ukraine. On the 3rd March 2025, we will embark upon an epic journey across Europe, delivering humanitarian aid and an adapted vehicle to our partners in Ukraine. We will donate both the vehicle and aid to our Ukrainian neighbours to support the defence of their homeland.

The current situation demands urgent action as Putin targets Ukraine's electricity grid. Our goal is to raise funds for portable generators and essential aid items. Instead of specific donations, we seek cash donations to maximise our impact. The people of Ukraine need our help, and we urge you to support this cause in any way you can.

Further information can be found at convoy4ukraine.com, a charity that I am proud to be a trustee for.

The truck is now dressed up and ready to go. I can’t believe how super generous everyone is - we have donations coming in from all over the world, both to this fund raiser but also to the wider Convoy4Ukraine fund raiser. Anyone who has kept up with the news will have seen how much uncertainty there has been over the last few days. This is impacting massively upon Ukraine’s citizens so please don’t underestimate the value of your donations.

The magnetic branding has arrived but our pickup truck is not here to ‘try it on’! It is away being serviced FOR FREE by the fabulous mechanics at Bedford Garage Services so instead here is the Land Rover modelling our branding. The branding was provided FOR FREE by Simon Marrison (aka The Cheese and Pie Man) from a design produced FOR FREE by Kirsten Rivett - thank you all xxx
