Each 8kA generator costs £500, which means that the event will be able to fund 63 new generators.

The generators are supplied at cost by JCB, and delivered by its dealership in Ukraine, avoiding expensive delivery costs and logistics, and thus maximising the impact of the donations, ensuring every penny goes to help the people of Ukraine.

Aid Alliance founder, Jeremy Fish said: “Each one of these generators provides much needed power to struggling families, schools and communities. With winter approaching, these generators are urgently needed right across Eastern Ukraine. They not only provide the kind of basic comforts we all take for granted, like heat and light, they could actually save lives.”
