On Friday 21st February at Friends cafe in Los Montesinos at the Age Concern Fun Quiz night. Over 50 of their volunteers and their friends enjoyed the trivia quiz, almost all managed to identify the people in the picture round. We had a lot of fun with the 3 teams of winners who had to get through the tie-break. A superb buffet was much appreciated by everyone then it was onto Play Your Cards Right. This section of the evening proved to be an hour of sheer laughter with only one person managing to complete the two rows of cards.  It was fabulous to see so many people enjoying such a sociable evening and it is hoped to hold another such event in the autumn

Age Concern celebrate the Spanish traditional Christmas celebrations on January 6th every year at the Day Centre and January 2020 was no exception.

It was a great day at the Age Concern 2022 Summer Fair at the Day Centre in La Siesta. The aim of this Annual event is to raise money enabling Age Concern to keep all their services, vehicles and equipment in tip top condition so that the vulnerable in our area can live their lives in good health, peace and tranquillity. The enormous amount raised on this day was 2,137.95 euros for which we thank each and every visitor for spending so generously. 

IT WAS  A SIZZLING DAY FOR THE AGE CONCERN ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES EXTRAVAGANZA

Age Concern held their ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES EXTRAVAGANZA  on Saturday 25^th May at their Day Centre at Calle Paganini, La Siesta.  People thronged from far and wide to attend this event and enjoyed browsing the many stalls, taking part in the activities or simply just relaxing in the summer sun with a nice cup of tea. 

Even the Barbecue sizzled with Burgers and Sausages.

Del Boy, Rodney and the rest of the volunteers got in the mood, even the Iconic Batman and Robin scene from Only Fools and Horses was played out with Batman and Robin making an appearance.

Everyone was entertained by the Melody Makers who got their audience singing along to popular cockney melodies.

 The Melody Makers made a good day great, by presenting Del Boy, aka  Malcolm Winstanley, President of Age Concern Costa Blanca Sur ,with a cheque for €550  raised by them. Age  Concern Costa Blanca Sur  would like to thank them warmly for their donation  and for volunteering to come along and provide such a delightful couple of hours of music. 

Age Concern raised a staggering €2,544.75.  All the money raised goes straight into the maintenance and upkeep of the Day Centre, providing beneficiaries with daily activities, keeping the two vehicles running, along with ensuring all the valuable services and mobility aids are in ship shape order ready for the vulnerable and our aged population to take advantage of whenever needed.

A special thank you must go to all our volunteers who gave so much of their time to make sure cakes were baked, prizes and bottles donated, costumes made, stalls manned and everything in place to make this day a success. 

Thank you, as well, to all the companies and organisations who donated prizes for our raffle.

What a fantastic afternoon everyone had at the Age Concern People’s Fair yesterday at Domino’s Bar in Punta Prima on the 10 October 2019.

Friday September 27th the Day Centre of Age Concern was packed with our beneficiaries and volunteers for a grand Afternoon Tea Party with entertainment. A superb buffet of dainty sandwiches, scones, sausage rolls etc., and lip smackingly delicious cakes was prepared especially for us by Bar Carmen

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.
