Pictured right are two Freewheelers EVS riders modelling high visibility jackets supplied by ICU-UCMe. Tom Craig, managing director of ICU-UCMe, recently presented Freewheelers with 15 blouson style jackets and 15 lightweight over-jackets to help increase the visibility and safety of our riders. Each jacket bears the charity's logo and the word "BLOOD" printed in large letters on the back. The jackets, which will be worn by our volunteers whenever they are on duty, will play a vital part in keeping our riders safe while they are on the bikes making valuable deliveries to local hospitals.

In addition to providing the jackets, ICU-UCMe will make a donation to Freewheelers for every jacket that is sold through our website. If you wish to purchase one of ICU-UCMe's excellent motorcycle or car high visibility jackets please mention Freewheelers EVS in your order to ensure that we receive the welcome donation to our funds.

According to Department of Transport figures for 2004, more than 3,000 people were killed and 280,000 were injured in traffic accidents. Jackets such as those provided by ICU-UCMe are a very tangible way of reducing those needless deaths and injuries. Freewheelers EVS is proud to be associated with Tom Craig and ICU-UCMe.
