Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am thrilled to be selected as a volunteer for the Emergency Services Aid Charity Op Zephyr #2 which gives me the opportunity to personally deliver emergency vehicles and equipment to The Gambia.
In 2022, with over 50 emergency services volunteers, ESAC delivered 17 fire engines and ambulances that are now in service - in 2024 we aim to deliver far more.
They also delivered much needed clothing and equipment for schools, orphanages, clinics, doctors and firefighters - in 2024 we aim to give them even more.
From my own work experience in The Gambia, in 2016, I could see first hand how communities suffer unnecessary loss by being denied access to emergency intervention due only to them living too far from clinics and not having patient transport, or the lack of available medical or firefighting equipment.
I will pay my own expenses - I need your help to finance the cost of an ambulance or to find a company (or companies) willing to donate one…. then we can fill it with what is desperately needed before I take it for a 3,500 mile drive to the West Coast of Africa over a few weeks.
Please help if you can and/or do get in touch if you want more information about donating or sponsoring this second humanitarian aid mission undertaken by ESAC - Reg. Charity No. 1199449
