PCN 'at a glance' as at 1st July 2010
As at 1st July 2010, PCN have 17 nurses and carers who are caring for 42 patients, and provided 713 hours of care in the month of May.
In June, over €5023 was raised through fundraising, together with a further €6233 from our shop takings.
In the first 6 months of 2010, our numbers of patients, nurses and carers have nearly DOUBLED and from July, we will have DOUBLE the number of shops!
Our grateful thanks go to all who help in anyway to fund our nurses and carers.
Every €10 donation we receive pays for one hour of nursing care for terminally ill patients.
Every cent helps us continue this much needed work!

CARNATIONS CARNATIONS!!
Hundreds of local bars, businesses and individual supporters of Paul Cunningham Nurses, have done us proud by selling our Carnations.
Can we please ask you all to accept this as a personal ´THANK YOU´ for your support.
All the monies raised are used to nurse our terminally ill patients.
We are eternally grateful to you all.
If you would like a personal receipt for monies raised via the carnations, ring Kären at our office on 966 790 363 during office hours of 9.30-12.30 Monday to Friday - please do not ring outside of these hours as the number is then used for Nursing needs only.
Susan Reader is on her way around collecting the remaining carnations and monies, and asks for your patience please this is a huge job.
Once again THANK YOU from All at Paul Cunningham Nurses.

With a bike winner each week at the Moncayo Market Paul Cunningham Nurses plan to have a sponsored bike race in October when the temperatures start to cool down. The race will be a ‘Fun Race' and probably only about 2/3 km's
All bike winners from the weekly raffle in aid of Paul Cunningham Nurses will be invited along with anyone else who would like to ‘take up the challenge' - each entrant will be asked for an entrance fee of €2 and to have at least €10 in sponsorship money. The winner will receive a prize of half the entrance money.
Recent winner pictured above was Arthur Burdett from Monte Golf in Los Montesinos. Now Arthur is retired he and his wife Breeda spend half their time here in Spain and the other half in England. When asked if he would be using the bike himself, Arthur jokingly replied: "I don't need to, I can't get any fitter than I am now!"
Moncayo Market has a raffle every week with spectacular prizes - tickets are just €1 for FIFTY NUMBERS! Each week the Moncayo Market offers new attractions such as food tasting, wine tasting, live music, flamenco dancing, demonstrations - as you wander round there is a party atmosphere that never stops.

With the success of charity shop and a second shop opening soon, we need to be able to transport stock and the larger items that are donated to us.
We are looking for a people carrier or similar to purchase, if you know of a suitable vehicle for sale, please let us know.
Storage Space Needed
The ladies in our La Marina office are being squeezed out by equipment! We are looking for reasonably priced storage in the La Marina area, with easy access so that we can store wheelchairs, hoists etc.
