Help for elderly couple (shopping, doctor's visit)
by geale » Mon Nov 15, 2021 5:12 pm
Is there an organisation that helps people who temporarily need assistance with shopping and doctor's visits?
I am asking for English friends of mine in La Fiesta (Quesada). The husband is very ill and can't drive and the wife has no driving licence. Both are almost 80. It's a long way to the shops and she can't walk that far (let alone carry groceries at the same time).
They need help to get to the shops and to the doctor.
I myself live in Norway and the couple's only daughter lives in the UK.
Can anyone help or advise on where to find help?

Check whether Mercadona or Consum deliver to their address. The order can be submitted remotely by a friend or relative. Mercadona deliver the order in bags to the door and I highly recommend their service. There's a charge of a few euros which is much cheaper than a taxi for me.

Hi,
This original post was from November last year and as they were looking for temporary help they might not need it now. Just in case you don't receive a reply
