Roly and George Tavernor in front of their pick up in Lviv, donated to the Ukrainian people, It was driven 1200 from Norton in Hales.
More than 200 pick-ups have been delivered so far with the charity committed to delivering as many as possible until the conflict is over. They are looking to go out once more in November before the full onset of the winter. "Most of the people on the trip were farmers. We went from Hull to Rotterdam, on to Poland and then delivered the pick-ups into Lviv, with a police escort."
