In this article we won\u2019t be naming any names but we think it is important to highlight how these groups can provide information, help with problems and, particularly with the charities working here, provide invaluable help to those who need it whether temporarily or on a more permanent basis.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At a recent British Consulate event a local Spanish journalist asked why the British in particular had so many groups and associations. It is a difficult question to answer as most of us don\u2019t really think there is anything unusual in getting together for reasons as diverse as gardening and cooking; or helping support injured soldiers or cancer patients.<\/p>\n<p>Fund raising for charities is of course a worldwide activity and here in Spain there are many international and European groups who work together for people from all the different communities. Recently I personally had the humbling experience of meeting a retired military officer who had cycled 4.000 kilometres &#8211; from London to Rabat in Morocco &#8211; to raise money for one particular charity, M\u00e8dicins sans Fronti\u00e9res!
