They organise many weekly events such as Friday walks, petanca, whist, lunches to name afew and also organise trips such as one this week to Ikea & Primark in Murcia. They also have short 4/5 excursions exploring Spain !

After 4 consecutive weeks attendance you are eligable for a "Loyalty Card" which entitles you to various perks and discounts at local outslets, bars and restaurants.
