Art and Craft Get Together
During the month of January a number of our "regulars" get
together to paint. Here are some photographs
of the session this morning.
Charity Festive Swims
Swim for Shoes. 2015/16 the annual event to swim or
paddle in the Atlantic Ocean has, this year, so far raised over 800 Euros for
new shoes for children in care.
Many congratulations and thanks to all those who
participated.
The money will be used to buy shoes during the year for
the teenagers. It will be divided between A Gaivota, Santa Casa in
Albufeira and Espaço Amigos in Armação de Pêra. Each child at school
needs a pair of trainers and plimsolls.
Certificates were awarded to all those who got wet and
everyone enjoyed a "Hot Chocolate " in the Holiday Inn Algarve bar
afterwards.
A big thank you to everyone who took part, those who
watched, the media for helping with the publicity, Dave Sheldrake
(http://davesheldrakephotography.com/) and Diogo Correia
https://www.facebook.com/diogo10 for photographing the two events
and to everyone who donated so generously.
