A charity called Swindon Humanitarian Aid Partnership has donated, amongst other vehicles, a few repurposed buses to Ukraine to be used as rest areas for troops, mobile hospitals and supply transport. More info in the link:

Medical bus kitted out by Swindon Humanitarian Aid Partnership on its way to Ukraine

A team from Swindon? Humanitarian Aid Partnership has sent its latest aid for beleaguered Ukraine.

A small team from SHAP drove three vehicles including a single-decker bus converted into a mobile medical centre to Calais and a meeting with Ukrainian friends and colleagues.

The bus, along with a bendy bus and a Nissan 4x4 then headed across Europe toward Ukraine.

It is only the latest help sent by SHAP, which was formed shortly after the Russian invasion.

So far I have seen photos of an ex Swindon Dart, some B7RLEs from First bus and the B7LA bendies which were used at Luton Airport until the DART opened.

The one on the left was new to Southern Vectis as 3361, then to Damory Coaches, I think.

The picture with the caption of 'interior of the medical bus' looks an awful lot like the interior of LeShuttle.

Excellent cause though, and no doubt they will find themselves well utilised.
