Hi Andy,

I'd recommend picking up a copy of local free newspapers for ideas. Just yesterday, I was reading Euro Weekly News and there were articles from Help the Aged and Help Vega Baja looking for volunteers. I know Samaritans in Spain always need volunteers and, of course, there's a variety of animal charities always needing help, both in the shelters and their shops. Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre has a charity shop in La Zenia and SATS Animal Charity has a shop in Cabo Roig, so it may be worth asking them. Also, the dog charities often need volunteer walkers to exercise the dogs.

Kind regards,

Kim

That’s great advice, I assume the local papers are available in supermarkets and the ayuntamiento?

I’ve heard of the SAT and horse sanctuary so I’ll contact them.

many thanks Andy
