Three ambulances from Bristol have been donated to the Ukrainian Government as the Russian invasion continues.
The decommissioned ambulances recently left Bristol Ambulance Station to begin their 1,200-mile journey to the border between Ukraine and Poland. They were bestowed by the South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SWASFT) as part of the UK’s package of NHS ambulance donations.
Will Warrender, chief executive of SWASFT, said: “Like so many people around the world, we have watched on with great sadness at the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Along with other ambulance trusts around the country, we are humbled to be able to provide these ambulances to the Government of Ukraine and its people.
