Christmas Lunches for over 200 Clients

The festive season is very family orientated and the classic image of a Christmas day is the whole family around the tree, enjoying each other’s company. However, some older adults may spend the Christmas holidays on their own due to physical reasons or because they have a small family that lives far away. It is important to make sure that our elderly loved ones are included in the Christmas holiday festivities because it minimises loneliness and reduces stress, promoting better physical and mental health.

Christmas time is especially a busy time for Age Concern Fuengirola Mijas & Benalmadena. The charity has recently arranged coach trips to Estepona and Gibraltar enabling clients to stock up on Christmas goodies. The December main event always culminates in a Christmas Lunch. This year’s Christmas lunches which were served to over 200 clients were held at The Carvery Montemar and Snack Attack, La Cala.
