Bring a brolly – brainstorm on the horizon!

PICK YOUR BRAIN: The community is invited to get involved by giving their thoughts during this wonderful event. Source: Wikimedia

THIS is probably one of the most unpleasant sayings in the English language but it does seem to fit the bill! 

We are coming up to our fourth United Nationalities of Marbella Summit and without Marbella’s brilliant international community we wouldn’t be able to achieve anything. We need you!

Once again, we are relying on our community to brainstorm and come up not just with ideas but strategies to put them into practice.

We live in a marvellous city that really does have everything, but for those of us who do not get involved with the Spanish community or do not perhaps have a family support system living close-by, we might find ourselves at a bit of a loss.

This is where the “community” comes in. With 147 nationalities registered in Marbella we have an unique insight into just about everything with highly experienced and diverse individuals who have, between us, seen and done it all. Sharing this knowledge can help fill some of the gaps that have arisen due to us foreigners setting up home and bringing up families abroad.

This year the central focus will be on our teens – #UNMS2019 on the 14th of May if you’d like to save the date – but there are many other incentives that have come up over the past three events and it would be nice to have your feedback on these also.

If you register directly for this year’s event from our web www.rtvmarbellanow.com/unms2019 you can put in your replies to the following points there. If you are unable to attend please send me an email to MiMarbellaRTVM@gmail.com with your thoughts, suggestions and / or possible contribution:
