It is up to the service that Red Cross lends in Alcantarilla We recently signed a collaboration agreement, to close the number of actions that, in general, Cruz Roja provides in our municipality, the interventions they have in all the events we organize, since in some of them They are concentrated a lot of people in our municipality and this collaboration was necessary.But apart from this the relationship with Red Cross is total when there is some training activity or events.Therefore, the fact that they have come here to introduce us the new vehicle Is also a reflection of the closeness and collaboration we have with them and are part of this municipality as a few in the whole of
Town Hall and for that I thank him, and that he is here the autonomic responsible is also a sign of the link that Red Cross has with this municipality.

Red Cross in Alcantarilla works very well, that an organization like this works with a 80% of volunteers are a blessed organization, not by whom, but blessed by mankind. All local assemblies are the nursery where
These specialists, who are the volunteers, have the affiliation, the skills, acquire the knowledge, in this case doctors, nurses, drivers, etc.
All that requires planning, needs an organization.
All the programs have an autonomous scope, in particular in Alcantarilla is with elderly people and the attention of the urgent basic necessities, with distribution of foods and social helps ".
