Help Robin buy, drive, and deliver an evacuation vehicle to Ukraine 🇺🇦
In March 2025, Robin Hammond will travel 1,318 miles over 3 days across Europe with the Driving Ukraine team to deliver an evacuation vehicle destined for work on the Ukrainian frontlines.
Robin has put his hands up to join the team and make the delivery happen, and he now needs your support to buy, drive, and deliver this vehicle.
Driving Ukraine vehicles, 4x4 pickup trucks and ambulances, are purchased in the UK and modified by dedicated volunteers, will be placed with essential teams in Ukraine including: ambulance crews, 4x4 evacuation teams, first-aid responders, international volunteer medics, humanitarian bomb disposal units, hospitals, among others.
The urgent need for international support in Ukraine is undeniable, particularly today. The longer this invasion persists, the more challenging it becomes for Ukraine. The war is now entering its third winter. The future of Ukraine’s survival hangs in the balance with new leaders coming to power. The Ukrainians need more vehicles, aid, and international support from volunteers than ever before.
The toll of this conflict is staggering, with tens of thousands of civilians killed, countless more injured, and hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure damage. 4,000,000 Ukrainians have lost their homes, 10,000 missiles have been launched at the country, and over 1,000 hospitals have been destroyed.
We request your support in raising £5,000 and beyond to purchase and transport a 4x4 vehicle.
Funds raised beyond this will buy a drone jamming device to prevent the vehicle being destroyed by FPV drones. More details below.
Vehicles are destroyed by the harsh war-torn conditions, further exacerbated by the cold winters. Vehicles are destroyed by the enemy: bullets, artillery, shrapnel are key causes, but drones are the largest threat.
An example “EW” Electronic Warfare drone jamming system is below. Specifically the ‘Amulet 7M’.
This technology is made by volunteers in Lviv and seeks to block a range of frequencies which drones rely on to fly.
Kamikaze drones aiming for our vehicles are stopped 180 metres away: depending on the settings they are forced to either lose connection and fall from the sky, emergency land, or return to ‘home’, all of which prevent destruction to the vehicle, and protect the lives of the driver, the passengers, and any wounded soldiers the vehicle is carrying.
