8th November 2026 Aid to Ukraine

Zhenya Shkil, Founder of the Charitable Organisation, Friends of Oleksandriya, that deliver critical humanitarian aid and medical supplies to support heavily bombed communities, hospitals, and local services in the Oleksandriya region, called in on Thursday the 5th evening, to show Rotary Club of Guildford Chantries the truck the Club had co-funded for use in the danger zones to enable the rescue of the the wounded.

She was on her to way to Ukraine to deliver it to Oleksandriya. It was part of a convoy of 5 vehicles. The journey from Dunkirk to Ukraine was expected to take three days and indeed they passed into Ukraine from Poland, on the morning of Remembrance day. Quite fitting one might say.

The pictures were taken at Dover on Friday afternoon.
