AMBULANCE FOR BELARUS
Club Case Study - Aylesbury Hundreds
19 Aug 2001

Two years ago an Organisation in Chesham / Amersham "The Chernobyl Connection" took Humanitarian aid to the Town of Hoiniki close to the restricted Zone in Belarus that received the highest level of contamination from the Chernobyl Disaster.

Support was given by the Aylesbury Hundreds and Chesham Clubs in obtaining the goods for Schools, Hospitals and orphanages. A member of the Chesham club made the trip and on his return mentioned the state of the local Ambulance to Aylesbury Hundreds Club who promised to obtain a second hand ambulance. The vehicle has now been obtained, and paid for by The Chernobyl Connecti

Aylesbury Hundreds Club and the Chernobyl Connection are now working together to equip the ambulance with suitable medical contents and organise delivery to the hospital. The ambulance comes equipped with stretchers and some fittings, but if anyone has contacts for suitable first aid materials for the ambulance please contact Terry Taylor International Chairman of Aylesbury Hundreds 01442 386444 terry.taylor@calibre.org.uk or Les Lee 01494 785076 leslielee@compuserve.com

We also received 100 blankets that I understand are being laundered by wives of Rotarians. Thank you ladies!
