Ukraine Ambulances Are On Their Way

Andrew has provided a further update on the Ukraine ambulance project he has been helping with.

And they are off ...

The first of Goole's ambulances for Ukraine are on their way to the country. 

I could not be prouder of Goole and the workers at O&H and others in their supply chain who have made this possible. 

In just a few weeks we have gone from a simple request asking if we could help get ambulances to securing the funding, getting the ex-military vehicles purchased, working on the prototypes for conversions, to getting them on the production line, sorting the export licences at pace  and now getting them on their way to Ukraine.

Fantastic work by all involved and especially the guys at Venari O&H in Goole. We have more ordered and lots of work is ongoing to secure more funding for even more. 

Sadly, as we saw this week with the Russian attack on vehicles evacuating patients from a hospital, these vehicles are much needed, especially the armoured ones which are in production too.
