In early March 2025, after four days on the road, Convoy #8 entered Ukraine with 14 vehicles all packed with vital aid to help to save lives.
On November 15th 2024, Convoy #7 crossed into Ukraine, delivering 14 vehicles that are already in the hands of Ukrainian volunteers and aid workers. These vehicles are now providing crucial support to those most in need, saving lives.
Rotary Club of Cambridge South President Mike Smith presented Convoy4Ukraine Chair Tom Walston with a cheque for £1,000.
Tom thanked Mike and said, “It’s important that organisations that have only just started get support. Thank you very much to the volunteers who raised money over Christmas – it will go to save lives – and it is good to know that Cambridge hasn’t forgotten Ukraine.”
Some of the Convoy4Ukraine team were invited to the London Interdisciplinary School to take part in a video shoot.
Karen Ainge, Vehicle Team, said: “It was good to hear from everyone their reasons for wanting to help the Ukrainian people. For me, it’s simple – I am a daughter, wife, mother and grandmother and I won’t do nothing whilst Ukrainian women and children suffer.
Peter said: “I am from Hungary and it’s important to help Ukraine and show that not all Hungarians support the current government.”
