MEN on Sunday
|March 20, 2022
THE leader of a convoy of fire engines carrying equipment which is bound for Ukraine has described the trip as 'personal.
Mike Pitney, who with other volunteers is taking 22 vehicles including fire engines and lorries packed with equipment, said he felt he had to help out the emergency services in Ukraine after Russia invaded last month.
UK charity Fire Aid and the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) sent an initial delivery to the country on March 11.
The second convoy, consisting of donations from fire services across the UK, left Ashford in Kent yesterday morning.
Donated kit includes generators, hoses and several fire trucks.
