Please Help Monchique

As a result of the recent fires in Monchique, many people have been affected, losing their homes and livelihoods.

Amovate has decided to donate €200 worth of goods which will be delivered by Amovate Committee Members, probably next Wednesday 22nd August to the Escola Manuel Nascimento, in Monchique, which is a collection point for goods required by those affected.
These items are being distributed by a Group recently formed called Ajuda Monchique….Help Monchique.

For more information, you will find links to the organisation’s Facebook Page, and Website. Also listed, are the items required.

All items donated can be left at the Amovate Headquarters, the Old School House in Vales, and these will be delivered along with items purchased by Amovate.

Bombeiros Supplies – Update

Amovate have been advised that if anyone has a spare room for evacuated or displaced people as a result of the Monchique Fire, please could they contact Sally Henman on    aljezuralpacas@gmail.com

Also, we have been advised by the co-ordinators at the Bombeiros at Silves, that the firefighters are coming back for food hot, sweaty and wet, and are living in wet clothes.

They need T shirts in all sizes, and underwear all sizes both male and female.

They do NOT need socks, they do NOT need food or water as they have enough for a day or two.

If anyone wishes to donate, they may leave these items at the Old School House in Vales, the Amovate Headquarters.

**Yesterday (10 August), Amovate sanctioned 200 euro to buy items for the Bombeiros that they were requesting.
Cath Baker kindly volunteered to drive to Portimao where the following items were purchased :-
48 T-shirts
50 pairs of mens underwear
24 pairs of womens underwear.

These were then delivered to the Bombeiros station in Silves.

Charlie Hollis – Update

The Hollis family would like to thank all who attended and donated at Charlie’s funeral.

A total of €260+ was collected, and half has been donated to the local Bombeiros, and half to the Madrugada Charity.
