In addition, there are
over 5,500 Brits on the padron who live or work here so I think it’s really important that they all have the chance to fi nd out how we can help and what their entitlements are here in Spain. We’re specifi cally holding this event in the evening so that as many people as possible can attend”.

Using beautiful photographs she explained how there are many iris which are not the ‘bearded’ type. Iris unguicularis is the earliest iris, sometimes fl owering in December. She strongly recommended this one for our gardens. From Lanzarote she has the bamboo iris, Iris confusa, a native from China which would also fl ourish in our gardens. The spuria iris, a native of Central Europe fl owers at the end of May. For variety of shape and colours, the Pacifi c Coast iris is perfect. They can be grown from seed and provide a kaleidoscope of colour and the petals have ruffl ed edges. All these can be seen at the Iris Garden at
Marnes. Our garden group will be visiting twice in the coming months – fi rst to see the spring bulbs then later to see the iris (bearded too). Why not join us at our monthly meeting at La Senieta in Moraira. For details phone Joy on 966 498 681.
HELP Shop with the “Army”
Once again HELP of Denia and Marina Alta have made a generous donation to the Salvation Army. On Wednesday 15th February representatives from HELP accompanied Santiago Carreño of Denia Salvation Army to Lidl, Aldi and Mercadona to assist in the purchase of some essential items. Along with Monica, one of the Salvation Army’s willing volunteers they fi lled the trolleys with items such as, nappies, baby food and baby milk and of course some of basic essentials which keep their Food Programme running. The Salvation Army relies on donations and funds which they raise at the Songs of Praise services they hold during the winter months at the Port Denia Hotel. The Salvation Army also provide lunches for the homeless and over the Christmas period they organised a Street Ministery where the less fortunate were able to join in with Christmas Carols. Their Food Programme was able to provide some of the many families in need with basic items which enabled them to enjoy the kind of Christmas lunch which many of us who are more fortunate take for granted.
