Behind every convoy is one simple truth: war steals futures. More than 19,000 children have been abducted from #Ukraine

That’s why we keep driving because humanity means not turning away.

The Field of Mars in Lviv has grown from a small section of graves into an immense landscape of loss. Each new row marks another name, another family, another story cut short. These images aren’t just about the passage of time they’re about the price of defending freedom & the silence that follows.

It started with a yes.
One yes became hundreds.
Hundreds of pickups, thousands of miles, countless acts of kindness — all driving toward one goal: helping Ukraine.

This is what yes can do.

This isn’t just about driving aid across Europe; it’s about showing the people of #Ukraine they haven’t been forgotten. Every box, every mile, every kind gesture from their communities has made this possible. Want to be part of this mission? Your support makes all the difference.

Yesterday, hundreds of missiles & drones hit #Ukraine Lviv, Kyiv, Zaporizhzhia, and more. Even as attacks raged, Ukrainians kept rescuing, rebuilding & protecting.

This is why every vehicle we send saves lives under fire.

We’ve now delivered 721 pickups.
But they’re not numbers. They’re:
A grandmother evacuated from a shelled village.
A medic reaching the wounded in time.
A child receiving food and warmth.
Every stat = a story of survival.

23 convoys. 719 vehicles. £6 million in aid. But it isn’t just about the numbers. It’s about people like Bob, who has driven countless convoys, laying flowers at the #FieldOfMars in memory of those who’ve given everything. Every mile, every truck, every act of kindness matters

In Convoy 22 was a van, sourced and driven by Bob Preedy, that made its way to the Kharkiv Children’s Hospice #Ukraine Thanks to V-Aid it was filled to the brim with food, toys, & other essentials for an orphanage. Huge thanks to everyone who donated – your kindness reached those who need it most.
