EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1980s, showcasing three remarkable alligator jumbulances that were once used to transport handicapped pilgrims to the sacred site of Lourdes in France. These super ambulances, each measuring an impressive 60ft long, were owned by the Across Trust and played a vital role in providing essential medical assistance during these religious journeys. The image captures the sheer size and power of these unique vehicles, which were specifically designed to accommodate individuals with disabilities. The vibrant colors and intricate details highlight their significance within the emergency services sector. It is worth noting that these extraordinary machines came at a considerable cost of £185,000 each – funds primarily raised in the North-East region. However, as time passed by, circumstances changed and this ambitious project eventually came to a halt. Today, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of an era when these jumbulances played a crucial role in facilitating spiritual experiences for those who needed special care on their pilgrimage. Preserved through Memory Lane Prints' collection, this image not only showcases technological advancements but also represents compassion towards people with disabilities. It reminds us of how innovation can be harnessed for noble causes such as ensuring equal opportunities for everyone within our society.
