What can I say, I don't often get stuck for words.

Thank you all for your donations, the generosity of you guys and your friends has truly humbled me, it really has! I will of course be posting pictures on here and relaying info along the way, hopefully some lighthearted stuff as well to lighten the mood.

You will be getting the unfiltered version of what is happening in Poland (Obvoiusly we wont be venturing into the Ukraine) I will be chatting with as many folk as i can to help tell their stories.

The drop off points change daily dependant on who needs the aid most on that particular day, so I cannot say where we will end up at this moment.

If anyone else would like to volunteer to drive at any point in the future, I can pass on details, if you want to share the charity it is called:

www.van-aid.co.uk

Keep sharing my post on facebook, the more aid i can get to the people (And their pets) the better chance they will have.

Thank you all again, from the bottom of my heart

So in my mind I am going to do the next best thing, I will be setting off early April and heading as far East into Poland as is possible with a load of supplies for the Ukranians.



My mode of transport for this trip will be a horsebox! (I am co piloting with a lady from Devon) at a Bob Burgess speed of max 60mph it may take a while!



The convoy I am part of will contain around 10 vans, all full with stuff that Ukraninas will need while they deal with the situation that has changed their lives.



I have set up a 'go fund me' page for donations, if you can put a few £ my way I will ensure the money is spent on items that will be gratefully recieved, Nappies, Ladies sanitary products, basic food & drinks, medicines etc, stuff that we all take for granted!



I guarantee that any donations I recieve will be spent on the above items hand delivered to the folk that need them, no charity directors will benefit from this one



So as Bob Geldof once said, dont go to the pub, give us yer ** money, I don't care how much you guys can donate, every bit will help.



https://gofund.me/386ea3b9





Obviously I will post updates on here of the journey so you can follow the adventure..



Thanks guys and girlies
Absolutely brilliant, Andy 👏👏👏. Will certainly support you and am spreading the word amongst friends and neighbours 🇺🇦.

All the very best, Nicholas
