Thousands raised by Harrogate based company
Nearly £3,500 was raised by Transdev
Bus operator Transdev have raised over £3,000 to help support Ukraine.
This is after they donated 10p from every ticket sold on Sunday March 20th, from its buses from Preston in the west to Scarborough in the east.
The money will go towards the DEC’s humanitarian appeal.
Transdev CEO Alex Hornby said:
“Like everyone, we have all been saddened by the appalling events in Ukraine and the dreadful impact this has had on people who have had to flee the country.
“All of us at Transdev at our locations right across Yorkshire and the North West felt compelled to show our support and we hope the donation from our fares will go some way in giving the right kind of help to those who need it.
“We are proud to employ a number of Ukrainian families as part of our own team here in the North and give our full support to international Transdev colleagues aiding the humanitarian effort elsewhere in Europe.”
