Cheltenham ambulances prepare to leave for Ukraine

A fleet of seven ambulances are preparing to leave for Ukraine, stocked with medical supplies.

They have been arranged by Khaled El Mayet, from Cheltenham, who raised £70,000 to purchase the former NHS vehicles.

Mr El Mayet and a team of volunteers will drive the vehicles to the Poland-Ukranian border, where they will be handed over to medical professionals for use in Ukraine.
