SPRING CLEANING

Christmas is over and the three Kings have arrived.
What next? Spring Cleaning!!

It is that time of year when cupboards get opened and the under-build unlocked.
It is time to clear out all your unwanted bits and pieces.

Instead of going to the basura (rubbish bin), please think of MABS Mazarron.

MABS Cancer Support Group, Mazarron has a charity shop, which has been operating for ten months. The MABS Shop in the middle of Totana in Plaza de la Constitucion, between the coffee shop and the Pensionista Centro.

As a result of the success of the Shop in Totana, MABS Mazarron urgently needs donations of items to sell to help raise funds to support local cancer patients of all nationalities.

Clothing & shoes adults and children
Accessories hats, bags, belts, jewellery etc.
Bedding curtains
Glassware pottery and crockery
Bric-a-brac books
Games

The official drop-off points are

Glitzy Bitz – Sector A Camposol
Alley Palais – Sector B Camposol
Jane’s Salon – Bolnuevo
Costa Calida Radio and The Bistro – Puerto De Mazarron
The Charity Shop, The Square Totana, 10am – 2pm, Monday to Friday.

The manageress, Ann Vinal, runs the shop with a pool of 30 volunteers (25% from Totana) and she will be happy to show you around the Shop and accept any donations.

The clientele are a mixture of North Africans, lots of Brits and an increasing number of local Spanish. The Totana businesses have welcomed the local charity shop as it brings visitors into the square and augments the café and bar takings. Any items not sold at the end of a session are passed on to a Totana church.
