A cheque for 2,000 euros has been handed over to the AECC in Torrevieja by local man Neil Couzens, whose wife of 24 years, Denise, tragically died of cancer on May 20. She had been diagnosed with cancer a year earlier.

The much-needed cash was raised through donations from mourners at Denise's funeral and customers at the couple's cafe, Top Nosh, located at Zoco market situated between Ciudad Quesada and Algorfa.

A chunk of the money was also raised by Stone Media’s Theatre Group which donated the proceeds from three performances of Enchanted Ella, performed in June by a 30-plus cast. The group regularly supports local charities and deserving causes and also donated 175 euros of the proceeds to the Royal British Legion.

The group's next performance, Hocus Pocus Party Potion, will showcase on October 28-30 at the Madhouse and October 31 at the Oasis, San Luis. Rehearsals are underway but new members are always welcome as are behind the scenes helpers for lighting, costumes, scenery etc. Call Carla Stone on 666 551 816 for more information.
