The Mayoress was accompanied by the Councillor of Citizen Participation, Ana Macias, and were received on behalf of Cudeca by the Chief Executive and Medical Director, Marisa Martin, and the Financial Director, Rafael Olalla, who were delighted to give their guests a guided tour around the Hospice, raising their awareness of the welfare programs that provides free assistance to more than 750 people each year with advanced and non-curable illnesses and support to the families.

 

During her visit to Cudeca Hospice, the Mayoress congratulated all the Cudeca staff and volunteers for their continued support and commented that "The Municipal Government has a strong commitment to Cudeca, for the care and attention provided to people suffering from advanced and non-curable illnesses and their families, both from the Hospice centre and from their homes. This is why we must be at their disposal to help them in whatever they need and promote all necessary initiatives to raise funds, enabling Cudeca to continue offering its Special Kind of Caring throughout the province of Málaga ".
