Story
We are cycling across England to raise funds for Ukraine.
*UPDATE! We've extended the collection until 18 July 2022 to support the convoy to Bucha, Kiev, Kharkiv and Irpin, which is due to depart from Olsztyn on 11 August 2022. Thank you very much to all our supporters!*
On 22 June 2022 we will set to cycle across England (~100 miles along the Hadrian’s Cycling Path (Bowness-on-Solway to North Shields) to raise funds towards humanitarian aid to Ukraine. The money will go to Grupa Transgraniczna (Cross Border Group). We are overwhelmed with the generosity towards our call so far! The needs greatly exceed our £1000 target, so we will be gratefull for every pound we can collect!
Grupa Transgraniczna is a group of over 200 volunteer drivers, originating in our hometown (Olsztyn, Poland), who from the beginning of the war have tirelessly delivered supplies and brought people and animals back from the areas most affected. They regularly go as far as Donbas, Kharkiv or Dnipro. The supplies are now fading and the costs of fuel are extortionate, but the needs remain enormous. The link to donate will be live until the 18th of July 2022.
If you would be able to donate first aid kits, medical equipment (such as defibrillators etc.), power generators or even an old van, we will make sure it will reach the most affected areas and we will track it so you know where it went!
Thank you for all your support!!!!
