Transport UK London Bus

This morning, Alan Pilbeam, Transport UK’s COO, joined the Ukrainian ambassador to the UK, Valerii Zaluzhnyi and Ukrainian heavyweight champion boxer, Oleksandr Usyk, for the departure of 50+ vehicles transporting critical aid to Ukraine. Transport UK London Bus donated a red bus to lead the four-day, 2,000-mile drive from central London to the city of Kharkiv. 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 The bus is full of much-needed humanitarian aid including food, stretchers, wheelchairs, and medical supplies. Once in Ukraine, the bus will be used to transport people and supplies throughout Kharkiv. 🚍   At Transport UK, we employ a diverse workforce of over 15,000 people, including hundreds of Ukrainian colleagues with relatives still living in Ukraine. We are proud to stand with our Ukrainian colleagues, and the people of Ukraine by giving this bus a new lease of life to help connect communities in the country.     Transport UK is tremendously proud of the drivers who have volunteered to deliver the bus safely to the Ukraine border. The team includes Piotr Slawomir Maslag, Ian Sutton, our engineer Reece, and Ukrainian national Serhiy.   Most of the vehicles have been donated through London’s ULEZ scrappage scheme, alongside donations from businesses and individuals. The ULEZ donation scheme is a partnership with Transport for London and the Peaceful Heaven of Kharkiv / Мирне Небо Харкова, British-Ukrainian Aid, the Swindon Humanitarian Aid Partnership (SHAP) and V-Aid. The charities involved continue to welcome further donations.   #StandWithUkraine #TransportForUkraine   

It has been a deep honour to support British-Ukrainian Aid, V-Aid, and the Swindon Humanitarian Aid Partnership to ensure that vital aid and vehicles reach Peaceful Heaven of Kharkiv / Мирне Небо Харкова a charity supporting people in the city of Kharkiv. We are incredibly proud as our volunteer drivers embark on an epic four-day journey in a convoy of over 50 vehicles to deliver our bus to Ukraine. https://lnkd.in/dqKR2PQJ
