Vital UK aid ship set to arrive in St Vincent

2 weeks ago

A cargo ship filled with aid and donations from the UK following the devastating effects of Hurricane Beryl is days away from docking in St Vincent.

 

Kestrel Liner Agencies has been at the centre of the aid efforts, and has partnered with commercial suppliers and Europe Caribbean Line and its cargo ship, Beautranga to make sure supplies of generators, temporary shelter, infrastructure and rebuilding equipment, as well as containers full of private donations, reached the hardest hit islands as quickly as possible.

 

Kestrel has staff and partners at sites across the Caribbean and founder and CEO Andy Thorne said he knew he needed to do something as soon as he saw scenes of the devastation across the Caribbean Islands.
