Ann-Marie Brooks has been shipping donations to support St Vincent volcano evacuees An Ealing-based Vincentian has shipped 18 barrels of essential items to support evacuees living in shelters following volcanic eruptions in St Vincent. St Vincent-born digital marketing consultant Ann-Marie Brooks posted the 220 litre barrels, filled with items including clothes, toiletries, toys, shoes and dry food, on Friday April 23. Ann-Marie, who moved to the UK in 2002, said she was overwhelmed after receiving so many item donations and more than £2,000 to help pay for the £1,000 shipping costs, following a GoFundMe appeal. Ann-Marie said: “I was aiming for 10 barrels of supplies but to my amazement there were hundreds of phone calls coming in to me from all across the country. Some said ‘I’ve got a bag full of stuff for you to take right now’. The support has been overwhelming right across the country, it’s quite encouraging.
