Going Out - Page 55 CHUMS help La Nucia Food Bank
Four members of CHUMS (friends of charity) a registered group based in Benidorm and Albir accompanied by Rita and Anna from La Nucia Food Bank went to Lidl in La Nucia and loaded six trolleys with 528€ worth of food and
essentials for La Nucia Food Bank. Marilyn Rogers of CHUMS said it was due to the generosity of our members we are able to do this and it gives us all a warm feeling. We loaded all the groceries into our vehicles and whisked the goods back to La Nucia food bank cold store and helped Rita and Anna unload everything. Here in the picture are Marilyn, Peter, Pat and Brian from CHUMS and Rita and Anna with some of the trolleys.
Anyone who would like to join the group or would like more information please ring Marilyn on 96 586 4394.

210€ raised for Calpe Food Bank
Boutique Carol in Calpe has long been a supporter of Calpe & Benissa Lions, and an intimate Fashion Show held at the Boutique in Calle Doctor Fleming recently raised 210€ specifically for the
Calpe Food bank. Guests enjoyed Bucks Fizz in the sunshine while models paraded the latest summer styles and colours of the moment from designers such as Joseph Robkoff, Frank Lyman and Pause Cafe. All in all a delightful morning, and for a very good cause.
