(1/24) #WarInUkraine has shown how much power & willingness to stand up for a country in need businesses & private persons have. Events from the last 2 weeks are a strong example of this…
(2/24) Friday, 2:30 pm: Finnmark Hospital #Finnmarkssykehuset reports
2 VW Transporter ambulances for #Ukraine ready for pick up.
The 1st 🚑🚑 donated to 🇺🇦 from a health enterprise in 🇳🇴.
Completely free of charge 👏
(3/24) Saturday, 5 am: Board member Joakim starts the trip from #Steinkjer in Central Norway to Vadsø in Northern Norway - with 2 temporary licence plates and good mood
(4/24) Saturday evening: After a warm reception at Finnmark Hospital the 🚑🚑 are examined. Several years since these’ve been in use..Natural to expect some work getting them started 😆
(5/24) @NorwegianAidUkr is lucky to have faithful contributors in the North - Morten Meslo (#Kirkenes F&R) and @jnoien (@Vadsobrann) made themselves available as soon as they heard Joakim was heading to Vadsø
(6/24) One 🚑 started with 1 new battery, the other needed expert computer help from #VolkswagenVadsø#Harila that assisted on Saturday evening free of charge
(7/24) Sunday morning: After a careful technical check by #VikingVadsø, the 🚑🚑 were reported ready for the trip to #Trøndelag ☺️ Have I mentioned that the technical check was free of charge and on a Sunday? 👏
(8/24) After getting started, the 🚑🚑 demonstrated a fantastic technical condition. The trip of 1550 km back was smooth ☺️ These are ready to save lives in #Ukraine right after arrival!
Many thanks to Finnmark Hospital 🤗
(13/24) Friday morning: @NorwegianAidUkr back on land, driving through #Poland. Not many hours left till meeting the familiar faces at Poland-Ukraine border
(16/24) Sunday: While @NorwegianAidUkr is carrying out meetings with local fire departments, the white 🚑 is being picked up by paramedics from #Kherson 👏
(17/24) Monday, 5 pm: @NorwegianAidUkr in #Dnipro#Ukraine. Delivering the ambulance in hands of a soldier that is about to deliver it to paramedics working in #Bakhmut
(20/24) Let’s summarize this journey. #FinnmarkHospital has declared 🚑’s ready for pick up on Friday. @NorwegianAidUkr delivered those to the agreed destination points south east of Ukraine 9 days after. 2 of the 🚑 are now saving lives in Bakhmut and 1 🚑 in Kherson 💙💛
(21/24) Huge thanks #FinnmarkHospital for the first 2 donated 🚑🚑 to Ukraine 👏 You’re setting a strong example 💪
(23/24) And of course sincere thanks to all our financial supporters that make sure the extremely needed vehicles have enough diesel to get to the destination point inside #Ukraine 👏
Finnmark 🚑🚑 have driven over 4.000 km to get to south east of Ukraine 👆

Not every day F&R from @Vadsobrann#Finnmark are filling diesel in #Alvdal Eastern Norway 😆 Who knows, maybe we’ll see more of this in the coming months 🤔
