Jalon Valley HELP giving to the Community
SCHOOLS OUT! - SUMMER SCHOOL IN!
Jalon Valley Help have recently visited the ADIMA association in Pedreguer which is a centre for disabled people of all ages. Jalon Valley Help recently made a donation to the organisation of 3,000 euros which is enabling the centre to run a summer school during July and August when the special school in Denia, which the younger people attend during normal school time, is closed for the holidays. Our donation has enabled ADIMA to employ three assistants during the summer break providing supervision and activities for the young children and adults keeping them stimulated and occupied during the time they are at the centre.
The group photos shows some of the children plus Celia, the Director of ADIMA, together with Claudia, Rosanna and Estelle, the assistants. Rhonda Ryan and Angie Vickers are shown representing Jalon Valley Help. Celia expressed her deep thanks to Jalon Valley Help for their continuing support of their organisation and said that in these economic times it was becoming increasingly difficult to obtain the financial support that they had received in the past from local Town Halls and the Valencian community, therefore support from organisations such as provided by Jalon Valley Help was invaluable to enable them to provide this much needed facility.

Expatriate Ostomates of Spain was formed by Cynthia Robinson in Javea in 1997. Cynthia pictured here with Treasurer husband Nigel and Secretary Barry Lapham were delighted with the donation.
This gives much needed funding to the their Association, which relies on the efforts of members and organisations like Jalon Valley HELP to raise money to enable them to offer their very specialised help and support to those who need it.
An active member of the Spanish Federation of Ostomy associations in Madrid and with a seat on the World Council of the International Ostomy Association, EOS Javea are able to offer practical advice and confidential chats at their regular coffee meetings.
Their dedicated helpline 96 646 0063 will reach the people who know how important it is to have practical and supportive advice from people who understand the stress and trauma of the illnesses and treatments. And the lifestyle changes required to get the best out of life for themselves and their families.
Jalon Valley HELP are delighted to be able to support them in their efforts.

Presentation to Benigembla School
Jalon Valley HELP have been making more generous donations to the local Vall del Pop schools.
Here is a picture showing Isabella Gascó Moltó, Directora of Benigembla Infant and Primary School with fellow teachers Robert Chova Malonda and Alicia Martínez Escolano.
The cheque for 1133.95 was presented last month by Jalon Valley HELP to pay for items bought for the small village school.
With only 24 pupils between 3 and 12, all were able to benefit from the new play Kitchen and Supermarket, which the staff said were invaluable teaching tools for the children, together with two new xylophones, played expertly by some of the more musical of the older class.
