I also had the chance to explain
to Mr Manley about all the good
work that is being done in our
town for our foreign residents.
It was a very positive meeting which
will serve to further strengthen
our bonds of communication,
collaboration and coexistence.
A good example is the information
service provided by the "Help
Desk", located in the OAC which
provides care and information
in four languages to assist our
citizens in their dealings with the
Town Hall.
We are also aware that the success
of a society is measured by the
degree of equality and wellbeing in its midst. These are most
important issues. Consequently
we have signed an important
agreement to adhere to the plan
against energy poverty set up by
the Generalitat Valenciana, chaired
by the President Ximo Puig. This
agreement means that no citizen
or any family will be left without
water, electricity or housing
because they cannot afford it.
I also mentioned the Spanish
courses for foreigners and the
attention in English on social
networks and from my own
personal Facebook page.
