2017 Charity Calendar on sale
The 2,000 copies of the 2017 solidarity calendar are once again available to buy for a token 5€ donation. This is the 12th calendar in this series that Andy Ormiston has been able to produce thanks to the support of sponsors Alamo Costa Blanca Inmobilaria, Atlas Seguros, Aroca & Sequier abogados, Currency Direct and Mapfre (Brithol) Insurance.
Every year there is a theme and in 2017 it is dedicated to la Bella Lola as an homage to the women of the area. There are over 70 photos in the calendar, many donated by local photographers Raquel López Martinez, Joaquin Carrion, Fernando Guardiola, Javier Francisco Torregrosa, Nicolás García Villalgordo, Tomas Ortiz Mendiluces and Phil Friar. Once again Andy Ormiston has done the research and his friend Carlos Garcia prepared the layout.
La Bella Lola calendar is full of information about fiestas in the region and each page has a section outlining these, although the main fiestas and bank holiday, not only in Spain, but in the U.K. and Ireland, are noted.
As many of you know extra pages are usually devoted to culture or fiestas and this year it’s dedicated to those who bring the international language of music into our lives.
The calendar has notes in both English and Spanish and the monthly photos have a caption in both languages which is a reflection on women’s involvements in that particular month.
It makes an ideal Christmas gift and is on sale from over two dozen associations who benefit by being able to keep the sales money as the printing and the sponsors cover other costs.
After, the presentation three donations were made from the main sponsors Aroca Sequier and Currency Direct. Three associations, HELP association of the Vega Baja, AFA and Caritas benefited from a cheque of 3,200€ each.
The calendar is available from many local outlets but if you have a problem finding a calendar then contact Andy Ormiston at
