Silves Rotarians and their guests enjoyed an afternoon of fun, food and games at David Trubshaw’s home near Portimão. Penny, Jackie and David extended an invitation to Rotarians and friends to join them in their garden, for an afternoon of fellowship in aid of UNIR*. Guests played games and won prizes and enjoyed a feast whilst relaxing in the sun with friends. Margarida Trindade of UNIR explained to guests about the project to open a support centre in Portimao and thanked them for their support. Guests donated over €1100 which will all go towards the project. A successful and happy day! Thank you to all who attended and supported the event.
*UNIR is an Institution serving people with mental illness. A multidisiplinary team works with patients through training programmes and occupational activities that encourage and enable them to develop interpersonal and life skills ensuring their reintegration into society.
