Where do I begin? A fabulous turnout, 137 guests attended the afpop East Algarve Annual Full Moon Summer Ball / Party Night at the Faro Catering College. Everyone wined and dined under the light of the moon, and then had a great view of the lunar eclipse and the Blood Moon… which we won’t see again this century.
Rotary Club Estoi Palace International (RCEPI) is very proud to be involved in the acquisition of a vehicle that will provide mobile screening for lung and skin cancer throughout the Algarve.
This is the first step in a new campaign launched by the Algarve Oncology (AOA) Association “Move-tePelaVida.Algarve” (MoveForYouLife.Algarve). Its purpose is designed to engage with the Algarve population by taking the health services directly to them. This is the way forward to reach a larger number of people and, more importantly, reach those who struggle to access “normal” health services, and to reduce the disparity in social classes accessing health care.
Summer finally arrived last weekend, and the main task at the Sanctuary now is to keep everyone sheltered, cool and watered. In this edition of GN, you can read about the latest movements in and out, together with a preview of the next, very special, fund-raising event, to take place on 28th July.
