Urgent Appeal by Help at Home

HAH NEED YOUR HELP

Due to the continued success of HAH Help at Home, both in the Mar Menor and Costa Blanca areas, we are now looking for more CARERS who would be able to give a little of their time to help others. Quite a lot of people go back to the UK for the summer months, but unfortunately there are still a lot of people struggling to cope here. You do not need to be experienced, just common sense and the desire to help. Some of our carers are qualified, and both teams have qualified Nurses assessing and implementing care plans. Time given will be of your choice, and based on what you can give, some weeks may be busier than others. If you think you can give a little time please contact Jackie, HAH Help at Home (Mar Menor) on 968 575 231, or email helpathomespain@gmail.com or Sheila, HAH Help at Home (Costa Blanca) on 603 245 020 or email info@HelpAtHomecb.org

Night of San Juan, Lorca

Legend has it that good luck to come to the castle of Lorca in the Night of San Juan, and Lorca's needed now more than ever, so we hope all our wishes are met and the city shines again as before. 


The Night of June 23, from 20:30, Lorca Time Workshop organizes a free activity where our magical characters will gather at the castle to attract good spirits and drive them over the castle. There will also be workshops for children and a midnight bonfire will burn the past and pave the way for a recovery as painless as possible. 


As remarkable activity, the group Lorca "Debah Band" will bring to the castle of Lorca his transgressive rock from 23:30 h.
