The Association provides this new service that consists of the temporary assignment of adapted material for people with reduced mobility or convalescents of some surgical process.
The councilor of Citizen Participation of San Pedro del Pinatar, Fuensanta García, and president of the regional committee of Red Cross Mar Menor North, Manuel Leal, today presented the new orthoprosthetic bank created by this association through a municipal subsidy of 3,161 euros.
Manuel Leal explained that this new bank will be available to residents of San Pedro del Pinatar with low resources that need this type of material adapted temporarily.
To access this service, interested parties must request the material through a form available at the Red Cross office, located on Zurbarán Street, crediting said need medically.
The ortho-prosthetic bench of the Red Cross, coordinated by Inmaculada Martínez, is equipped with three wheelchairs, three pairs of crutches, three walkers, a shower chair, a bath adapter and an articulated bed.
For its part, Fuensanta García explained that this project is part of Citizen Participation grants to initiatives of local associations of socio-sanitary interest, which in 2018 amounted to 21,500 euros (20,000 gifted by the City Council and 1,500 donated by the LaCaixa Foundation) .
He also recalled that, through the "Solidarity Purchase Basket" program, this year also grants 9,692 euros for the healthy breakfast project in schools that Red Cross Mar Menor Norte has been doing for years in San Pedro del Pinatar.
