Cruz Roja ( Red Cross ) – Orihuela
The Spanish Red Cross (Cruz Roja Española) provides a wide range of welfare and emergency support from food aid, mobility care, teleassistance (personal alarms), home visits and counselling or advice. Extent of projects varies by area and local districts are supported by provincial-wide projects. The Red Cross usually works closely with local councils and their Social Services departments.
English-speaking help is normally available on request from staff or volunteers at this branch of the Red Cross (Cruz Roja).
