“

Every Ukrainian has lost something in this war. But we haven't lost hope. We fight every day. Help Ukraine, because the truth is on our side.

A small, independent effort from the North East of England. We raise funds locally, buy and prepare vehicles and supplies, and deliver them by road directly to people who need them in Ukraine.

Stories from the Road

Firsthand accounts from the trips - what we see, and why we keep going back.

Alina's Story

“It's very important to bring vehicles to Ukraine. I was raising money for a pickup truck for my father's brigade. Russia killed him just before we reached 75% of the fundraising goal.”

Tania's Story

“I know how hard it can be to fundraise. I had organised fundraisers for vehicles for my brother, who was also serving in the military. He was killed in action in the summer of 2023.”
