On 4th February 2018, Maureen Payne, President, attended the dedication of a Memorial Garden in San Fulgencio where a bench was donated by Age Concern for visitors to rest.

The concept of this special area was a young lady, Debbie Alger, in remembrance of her late father, a popular figure in the vicinity and known by many and in the wake of the Manchester bombing.
The site was blessed by the local priest.

Many of Debbie’s relations from the UK joined her and the crowd of approximately 100 residents.
Sara Munsterhjelm from the British Consulate in Alicante and staff from the local Town Hall attended.
This moving ceremony was brought to a close by releasing white balloons.
