Thank you from us all at Hope and Aid Direct and more importantly, from all the thousands of people you have enabled us to help.

We must thank the following organisations for their continuous generosity and help. Without their support many of our aid projects would not be possible.

This list is in no particular order

DHL are supporting Hope and Aid Direct initially by collecting and delivering aid boxes from a warehouse in Aberdeen and delivering to the regional groups for loading onto the trucks ready for the Easter convoy to both Kosovo and Albania.

3M have been extremely generous donating all sorts of reflective materials for use in our Child Road Safety Project in Kosovo. With no footpaths and no street lighting, you can understand how so many children walking home from school in the dark, are killed or injured in road accidents every year. We aim to provide hundreds of reflective arm bands to help reduce these accidents.

A&S Print Services Ltd, Unit 22 Fanton Hall Farm, Wickford, Essex has generously agreed to provide our Truck Stickers. These stickers give us an identity, but more than that, they contribute to our safety whilst we are in-the-field by making us recognisable as deliverers of international humanitarian aid. We are exceptionally grateful to them. Tel: 01268 573 999

The Ford Motor Company
The support that we get from our friends at Ford Motor Company is quite superb, and many tonnes of aid would not get to its destination without their magnificent support.

Boden have been a willing, valued and strong supporter of Hope and Aid Direct for some years, and their high quality clothing is hugely appreciated.

Maidstone Amateur Radio Society
Thanks to the Maidstone Amateur Radio Society who check out and tweak our CB radio equipment every time a convoy leaves the UK.

What other hobby can link you with others around the world with a similar interest? You can even talk to the astronauts on the International Space Station!

Another thank you goes to
Illingsworth Research
and
Research Nurses
who supply us with a new bike each year.

BATTERY POWER TECHNOLOGY Ltd
Battery Power Technology Ltd has kindly provided new batteries for the two way radios used during the convoys of humanitarian aid.

Lorry being loaded with donated aid for Kosovo.

A big thank you to Jurys Inn who have donated hundreds of duvets for us to take out to vulnerable families in Kosovo. Several pallets of duvets were loaded onto a returning Macedonian articulated lorry to be transported to Pristina for us to distribute during our Easter Convoy

Many trucks return home empty after delivering their goods to the UK. Fortunately for Hope and Aid Direct some of them will take aid for us and deliver it to safe storage in Kosovo for us to then distribute during our next convoy.
