Bombeiros Voluntários de Aljezur

Today the Bomberios were at Hugo’s Bar to meet and greet Residents who might wish to support them, and become a Partner of the Bombeiros Voluntários de Aljezur.

They are of course a very special group of people, and it’s important to assist as best we can and be supportive of their hard and important work relating to Fires and Medical Support within Aljezur and at times throughout the region.  The Bombeiros Voluntários de Aljezur play an extremely important role, essential to our wonderful community. Always available and very often putting their own lives at risk to keep us all safe!

 Unfortunately, notification was late and so we were unable to advertise this event to our readers either on our web site or on Facebook page.

 The Bomberios have agreed that we make available the membership form and the link below will enable you to print it off.

 Completed forms and donations  (minimum €12 per year) can be taken to the Station House in Aljezur where of course they will be gratefully received.  Please, as we have just done, become a member and support their ongoing frontline battle. Thank you!

Amovate Member donation to Charity

Amovate Member Donation to ACASA CLDS4G for children and families in poverty

Amovate member Marlene Scott whiled away the long and dark winter evenings over several years by doing jigsaws. Normally after completion they are broken up and put back in the box they came in. However, Marlene had a different idea which was to glue and mount them so that they could be displayed in the lower level of their villa.
As you will see in the video 44 jigsaws were displayed with many containing 3,000 pieces. Due to moving in the not too distant future the question was what to do with them when there would be no space available to display them in the property they will eventually move into. The decision was quite easy to make and donate them to CLDS4G where they could follow two options. One to give some to the children they look after and put a smile on their faces and the second to sell the remaining ones to raise funds.
The video was put together by CLDS4G along with some suitable music which was their idea to do to promote the jigsaws.
Therefore thanks to Aida Machado, Project Coordinator, and  colleague Sandra Nunes for their efforts and dedication to this charity.
