By North Lincolnshire ambulances arrive in Ukraine
The first ambulances specifically made for Ukraine have now arrived after leaving North Lincolnshire to help aid those in need of medical attention in the war ravished country.
Built in Goole, the ambulances are custom made to withstand the war climate currently going on in Ukraine while still helping those most in need.
The ex-military vehicles have been outfitted as ambulances by Venari O&H on a not-for-profit basis.
The team secured millions of pounds in funding from donors, businesses, and others.
Brigg and Goole MP Andrew Percy said: “I thought residents might appreciate an update on our wonderful Ambulances for Ukraine project.
“As you can see from the pics below, the vehicles have now reached Ukraine and some of them are on the run.
“Two types are being produced; a fully armoured version and a multi-casualty all terrain version. These are battlefield ambulances to be used mainly at the front.
“We’ve just secured funding for some more, so the amazing guys at Venari O&H will be busier for a little longer on them. We are trying to get some more funding put together so we can do even more.
“Well done to everyone involved whether painting the ambulances, fitting them out, the electricians and the valeters who ensure they get sent off looking spick and span. Thanks also to the other businesses in Goole and elsewhere who have been a part of the project.
“So proud of Goole!”
