Shopping and smiles: Royal British Legion Benajarafe launch two exciting events

THE Royal British Legion in Benajarafe is hosting an exciting shopping coach trip to Gibraltar on Thursday, May 25, in partnership with the Axarquía Animal Rescue Local Neutering group.

The Gibraltar shopping trip will begin with a 7:30 am pick-up at El Cruce, with guests required to bring their passports and TIE to pass through border control.

For a ticket price of €15, shoppers can enjoy a coach ride to the British Overseas Territory before exploring the iconic sights and indulging in duty-free shopping at Gibraltar’s high-end designer boutiques and local markets.

This shopping adventure is not only an opportunity to score great deals, but also a chance to contribute to a worthy cause. By participating in this event, guests will be supporting the Axarquía Animal Rescue Local Neutering group’s efforts to care for stray cats in the region.

The RBL and AAR Local Neutering group will also be hosting a barbecue event at Cortijo El Collardo in Benajarafe on Saturday, May 13th from 12pm.

Also for €15, guests will enjoy a delicious barbecue lunch with one drink, as well as musical entertainment. The event is expected to be a fun-filled day for all, with all proceeds going towards the same animal welfare cause.

For those interested in booking the shopping trip or attending the barbecue event, Liz can be contacted at 657293663 or guests can see Sam at Trapiche Market to reserve a space.
