The charity that I volunteer for National Police Aid Charity is going to convoy 25 second hand ambulances from around Europe to Banjul in The Gambia with drivers and motorbike outriders from the UK and Europe next March 2022.
The NPAC is working with the International Police Association to get this organised and raise funding through sponsorship for purchasing the ambiances and travel costs.
My area of responsibility is route planning which is fairly well advanced except for up to date info on fuel stations and campsite/accommodation en route.
We intend to muster at Algeciras in mid March and travel in groups of 6 or 7 ambulances with a couple of outriders each from Tangier keeping to the coastal roads after Morocco.
Research tells that diesel should not be a problem but petrol maybe? Each group will keep together and overnight as far down route as sensible ( camping , B&B or sleeping in vehicles )
The beginning and end details are coming along well but any up to date information on fuel and campsites would be welcome.
