Ambulance fundraising update -
After just two weeks of our new appeal to buy and donate an ambulance to Ukraine we have reached £1600 through our Just Giving page as well as £1800 in private donations, that’s £3400 in total! Thank you to all and please keep giving.
Thought I would share this video from our friends from Medical Aid Ukraine- North East who are helping us with our appeal. Joanna previously worked for the North East Ambulance Service but is now, along with her colleagues in Poland, transferring medical aid including ambulances from the far east of Poland to Lviv. We hope to meet her soon.

Update on our fundraising for an ambulance for Ukraine 🇺🇦
Since launching our new appeal just over a week ago we have already had donations through our Just Giving page of over £1400 plus another £1000 donated privately. That’s a fantastic start and thanks to all! Please keep it going.
We’ve have seen a number of potential vehicles but nothing bought yet.
We have also made contact with Medical Aid Ukraine - north east who have offered to help with paperwork and medical items enough to fill the ambulance for the journey, and with contacts for the handover.
Finally this week we have welcomed to The Pot Place our new staff member Kataryna, pictured (left) here with our Dawn outside the garden shop where she has been working. Kataryna is staying in the village with a local family and has made her way from Kharkiv in Ukraine 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 Please donate what you can, either in the garden centre shops or online. Thank you.

New Fundraising Appeal - An Ambulance to Ukraine
It is a week since we returned from our second trip to Rogowo in Poland. We dropped off all the items you had donated and were greeted yet again with many thanks, handshakes and hugs! Things have settled down a bit in the village and our friends are now refurbishing vacant properties in order to give the Ukrainian families more of a place of their own. We will continue to support them in any way we are asked to but for now they are doing ok.
Having seen the way the war in Ukraine is progressing we now want to support the Ukrainian emergency services who are doing an incredible job helping both civilian and military casualties. A number of organisations have already taken ex NHS ambulances to Poland for onward shipment to Ukraine. We want to do the same and have made the contacts to do so.
We just need your help to raise £9500 for the vehicle. We will pay for the fuel and ferry to get there and flights to get back. We have volunteer drivers too and together we will make this happen. Please follow this link and donate what you can, the sooner we reach our target the sooner we can go. Thank you 🙂
