Orihuela Costa ‘colony’ of 30,000 mostly Brits and expats launches independence bid to break away from Costa Blanca town
A COSTA Blanca ‘colony’ of around 30,000 residents – including a large British expat community – is taking steps to break away from Orihuela and become an independent municipality.
Euro Golf Members have collected over €2,000 for Help at Home Costa Blanca, a charity that aids local residents in need. Captain Duncan Roberts selected the organization as his charity for the 2025/26 season, and the group raised a total of €2,005.33. The latest €1,230.33 was presented to the charity on August 19, bringing the season's fundraising total to €2,005.33.
Help at Home Costa Blanca supports people across Costa Blanca South, helping residents with practical assistance, accessing social services, and providing interpreters. The charity also offers information about carers and care homes, personal alarms, GPS trackers, and guidance on UK benefits. Euro Golf Society members raised this money through donations and a shared passion for golf.
The organization's services are vital for foreign residents, including those who face challenges due to illness, reduced mobility, or unexpected problems. Many thanks to the Euro Golf community for supporting Help at Home and the people they help in the Costa Blanca region.
