Public donations enable Age Concern Estepona y Manilva to purchase new mobility equipment

AGE CONCERN Estepona y Manilva would like to say a great big THANK YOU to everyone who donated money to ACEyM. Here is a selection of the equipment we have been able to purchase; wheelchairs, rollators, commodes and toilet raisers etc; all labelled, numbered and catalogued and ready to loan out to our clients.

We are very grateful to Danny from Hola Mobility in Fuengirola who purchased these items for us and gave us many other items as well.

Becoming an ACEyM Volunteer or Friend

If you have a few hours a week to spare why not join us and work in the shop and/or in the community, helping us to raise the funds needed to support our volunteers working with older people in the community. You can find out more by calling our President on 608 458 555 for a chat or contact the office on 951 318 234 during shop opening hours (Monday to Saturday 10.00 – 13.30). All messages left will be answered when a volunteer is available.

If you do not wish to volunteer but would still like to show your support, why not become a Friend?
