A second convoy left on 21 April from Ashford fire station in Kent. See article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-kent-61177735\">https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-kent-61177735<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A third convoy is due to leave at the beginning of May. We\u2019d love to be able to include some trauma teddies and wondered if this is something your members might be able to help with.<\/p>\n<p>This request was circulated by Carol Reed on 22 April to all the clubs across the Region.<\/p>\n<p>SI Sevenoaks has been taking the lead on the Trauma Bear Centenary Challenge for the Region. They have donated all theirs to the police who are stationed at Dover and involved in greeting the Ukrainian refugees. They are handing the teddies to children when appropriate at this point in their journey.<\/p>\n<p>Medway and Maidstone club and SI Folkestone therefore took up this latest challenge to provide knitted teddies to go to Ukraine. A concerted effort was needed with the knitting needles to make a reasonable number of teddies within the week.<\/p>\n<p>Friends of SI Folkestone grabbed their knitting needles to support this endeavour and made 11 Trauma teddies and 2 lambs which were safely delivered to Kent Fire and Rescue.<\/p>\n<p>On 29 April Jane Barnes met with Jo and handed over 33 trauma teddies as Medway and Maidstone&#8217;s contribution.\u00a0 These will be going out with the third convoy leaving Ashford on 3 May.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid element_width=&#8221;3&#8243; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1651581460201-e5dcaa86-290f-9&#8243; include=&#8221;4928,4929,4939,4927&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A request was made on 21 April by Jo from Kent Fire and Rescue to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":730,"featured_media":4937,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[50,41,47,48,49],"class_list":["post-4925","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-region-news","tag-medway-and-maidstone-club","tag-si-sevenoaks","tag-trauma-teddies","tag-uk-fire-and-rescue-service","tag-ukraine"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 -
