We are moving to Quesada end of August. I’m retired so will be filling in an S1. I’ve read on here that my husband ( who doesn’t get his pension till March) will be covered because of my status. Is that correct? TIA

Yes. If you get the S1 as being over pensionable age then your husband will get a SIP card as your "beneficiary".
He will pay a percentage of the prescription costs, though, but will get treatment free of charge.
Contact the Overseas Health Centre at Newcastle before you move over and they will send the completed S1 documents to your Spanish address.

Thanks Marcliff, it was one of your replies that I read previously about this. Great news.
