Mijas Walking Tours For Charity

05/09/2024

WELL !!
I was slightly nervous about today's Mijas Walking Tours For Charity, it being the first for two months and I always worry if I can slip straight back into sharing three hours of information.
It seems all was ok because this terrific group donated a total of 165 EUROS 👏👏👏👏
Thus the overall running total in support of equine sanctuary S.E.A.R.C.H. rises to 1128 euros. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart ❤️

27/08/2024

The Mijas Walking Tours For Charity are thankfully fully booked throughout October with people waiting but here for the record are details of the local charity to which all donations will be given 😊🙏❤️

Mijas Felina is dedicated to controlling stray cats with the method of Trap, Neuter & Return. Volunteers dedicate their time and resources to help the cats.
Formed in March 2015, this association reflects a collective effort by compassionate neighbours striving to enhance the lives of these animals. The goal for Mijas Felina is to catch, sterilise and return as many cats as possible. In some instances, the cats do find their forever homes and are adopted into a loving environment.

The nominated charity for June and September is an independently-run sanctuary for horses with no place to go.
S.E.A.R.C.H is a registered charity established by Englishwoman Susan Barns and her husband Alan. The purpose of the sanctuary is to take in horses which have been abandoned or those whose owners have fallen ill or on hard times. Not only that, but the aim is to find a 'forever home' for those horses well enough to move on.
Susan specialises in rehabilitation and connection training for horses that have been abused emotionally as well as physically in order to rebuild trust in humans that has been lost due to severe abuse, even horses that have been considered irredeemable or unhomable and would consequently have been euthanised.
S.E.A.R.C.H relies completely on donations and fundraising events as there is no funding available at any level of government.
The sanctuary has 10 horses, the maximum allowed by law.

The fundraising via Mijas Walking Tours For Charity and the Fun Quizzes is now over and so on your behalf I'll be handing over this brilliant sum to the Isobel Gemio Foundation.
Many thanks to everyone who contributed ❤️

We were honoured on today's Mijas Walking Tour For Charity when Mario Bravo, a senior member of the Partido Popular, spontaneously gave his time to address the group, explaining the political structure in Mijas and how the council sessions work.
The group went on to donate 110 euros, thus taking the cumulative total in support of Fundación Isabel Gemio to 1110 euros 👏🙏

My two hour round trip back to Mijas was well rewarded when today's group donated a total of 130 EUROS following the Mijas Walking Tours For Charity.

Fabulous experience

May 2024 • Couples

We took the tour on 3 May and we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Booking via WhatsApp was very simple and we were given very clear joining instructions. On the tour itself, which lasted around 3 hours, with plenty of rest stops, Alan gave us fascinating information, stories and insights which truly brought Mijas to life for us. We also met several local artisans along the way and learnt about local crafts. Despite having visited many times, and becoming property owners in the Pueblo, we learnt things which will help us see Mijas through different eyes which is brilliant! It was also lovely to receive lots of pictures and helpful information after the tour. By leading these tours Alan does a seriously wonderful service to the village, and that all the money raised goes to charity is the icing on the cake! Thoroughly recommended!
