The kindness of strangers is quite remarkable - I never fail to be impressed by it: farming communities across the UK are supporting @pickupsforpeace. If you can help, please get in touch with them.
P4P is proud of the humanitarian work we do with our pickups. P4P has delivered 40 generators to 🇺🇦 in 3 months, helping supply electricity to hospitals, clinics and homes that have been impacted by Russia’s illegal and persistent attacks on energy infrastructure. 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇦
