Limerick Civil Defence are donating two fully equipped ambulances to provide medical support in Ukraine.
The two ambulances were recently decommissioned after the medical response service took delivery of two new purpose built ambulances in January.
Tomorrow Friday members and volunteers will transport the decommissioned ambulances to Dublin and present them to the charitable foundation Gurtom UA. It follows an appeal for ambulances and other medical equipment issued by the foundation earlier this year.
The decommissioned ambulances have been with Limerick Civil Defence since 2008 and 2017. The replacement vehicles have been purpose built and delivered after many delays caused by global events including Covid 19, and the war in Ukraine.
