Thanks to the generosity of Staffordshire entrepreneur, Ian Draper of Draper Vehicle Solutions Ltd, Brentwood, Staffordshire, we have taken possession of a sponsored vehicle, which will greatly assist IODPA to continue to support injured officers.
The vehicle was received on the charity’s behalf by our patron, entertainer Pete Conway, better known as the father of the famous singer, Robbie Williams. Pete said “I am very grateful to Ian, of Draper Vehicle Solutions, for his support to the charity to which I am Patron. Injured officers who have lost their vocation, leave with ongoing physical and mental health problems and often feel isolated and abandoned by the society they served. This vehicle will allow the charities volunteers to support those in need throughout the UK.”
Ian Draper, Director said “Our deliveries side of the business has grown over the last 5 years with the support of a number of retired police officers, so I am absolutely delighted to be able to give something back. I have the greatest respect for the Police who have a tough / near impossible job in the present climate.”
We are am grateful to Stephen Rice at Robin & Day Citroen North Birmingham for the fabulous deal, Matt Nation at Personalised Nation, Burntwood for the car sign writing, and Natalie Draper, general manager of classy Lichfield bistro, 55 Wade Street, for hosting the hand over event.
Please contact Ian if you are considering leasing a vehicle as he has expert knowledge, competitive rates, and a great range of vehicles with huge discounts available as a result of manufacturer’s over production.

A lovely and generous decision to support the charity in this way. Thank you Mr Draper
Thank you Mr Draper for your very kind and generous act. Many thanks also to our talented hard working patron, Pete Conway.
It is both heartening and humbling to receive such much needed and deeply appreciated assistance from the public.
This vehicle will be put to good use and is very much needed.
Once again, thank you Mr Draper.
What wonderful positive news. That will make such a difference to so many people.
Fantastic news and Thank You to all concerned. It is good to know we do have support from other areas of the general public and that our sacrifice is appreciated.
What a thoughtful and generous action Mr Draper has taken.
Sadly we hear, far too often of the worst actions being taken against serving and retired officers who have sustained life changing injuries, all too often from the very people who should support them.
Mr Draper’s decision to support IODPA in a very useful way is a very welcome breath of fresh air – there are good people around still.
