Masa Square - Charity Event

---

---

It was another wonderful day in paradise;  a group of us went down to Masa Square for the 'Help Tasha' fundraising event.  Now I don't normally go down to Masa Square; apart from anything else it is a hell of a walk from my home.  Andy picked up myself and Chloe and took us down to the square, where we joined in with the festivities, to help raise money for Tasha.

I have to say I had one of the best day's I have ever had in Gran Alacant. The Square was packed, heaving, everyone there to help raise money. The atmosphere was amazing, as it always is at these events.

It is testament to the community I am a part of, that at difficult times, everyone pulls together, to do their bit for others.  They are actually quite a giving lot in Gran Alacant; nothing is too much, for the residents, who reside here.

Well yesterday, everyone pulled out all the stops, to achieve great, memorable day.  All those who organised the events, must surely be proud of their efforts.

I had way too much  to drink, sat in the hot September sun, enjoying the day, listening to the music and watching the activities, with great friends. Chloe goes back to University in Wales soon and Andy flies to The UK, to work, on the same date.  I will miss these two, but will see them both when they return.  It is the nature of this place, that people, those that live here and holiday makers, come and go all the time.  In order to enjoy the Spanish lifestyle, one sometimes has to make sacrifices; we all have to do that in life after all!

​As the summer draws to a close, it was nice to sit, relax and enjoy a day with friends, before they leave for Britain, while the rest of us, stay behind, enjoying warm temperatures right up until Christmas and beyond!

Fundraiser in aid of Help Tasha

Tasha is a young girl, of only 23, who after being struck down and surviving meningitis, has now been left with three major life changing illnesses.  She is now paralysed from the chest down and has been in and out of Torrevieja Hospital, since October 2015.  Tasha is currently receiving chemotherapy, in the hope that it will stabilise her condition. We are raising funds for a bespoke minibus for her and to help pay for medication.
