Most of you will be aware of a huge fire raging in the South West of the Algarve,  which started near Bordeira in the Aljezur area.

Amovate have been asked to help by a representative of the Algarve organisation Associacão para Alerta de Incendio Florestal – Forest Fire Alert Association.  As always, the Bombeiros on the ground are desperate for provisions and toiletries.  However, due to Covid-19 donations of food and drinks etc. ARE NOT TO BE TAKEN TO THE FIRE STATIONS, but can be left at the Old School House in Vales.  These will then be collected and distributed by representatives of the Association.  The Association are also using their funds to purchase the necessary provisions and distribute accordingly.

The Association are also very low on funds this year due to the lack of fund raising  because of Covid-19.
