Medical Life Lines Ukraine has (as of the end of May 2024) delivered 64 aid-filled ambulances to Ukraine alongside 21 generators and one all-terrain rescue crane since Putin’s illegal and bloodthirsty invasion of Ukraine. This work has undoubtedly saved lives and – perhaps more importantly – shown the people of Ukraine that a huge number of people in the outside world are acutely aware of their plight and keen to help them in whatever way they can.

Now Sheen resident and former Royal Marine Alastair Grant is to drive a refurbished ambulance to Ukraine at the end of September and is raising £7,000 to assist. It will be one of several, packed with donated medical equipment.

To aid fundraising a concert is being held at All Saints Church from 6pm to 7pm on Sunday 15 September 2024. Wigmore Hall piano soloist Vedran Janjanin will be giving the concert. Doors open 5:45pm. Please come and show your support. Free entry.

Financial donations to the appeal will be most welcome at any time to – Alastair Grant-Just Giving-Ukraine. https://www.justgiving.com/page/alastair-grant-1718028919236
