The City Council has paid in full courses.

For the next series the Consistory financed two thirds of the amount, which will allow users to enjoy these paying only 8 of the 20 euros monthly cost.

Policy Councilmember Mayor of the City of Lorca, María del Carmen Ruiz, reported that the city council keeps its course offerings for the group of older people for the period October, November and December of this year.

Jodar Ruiz explained that during 2013 has been earmarked for the completion of these 40 courses totaling 30,319 euros, of which 617 have benefited over the different points of our municipality.

In this regard we must emphasize the fact that during the first months of the year there has been a large demand from users.

We are talking about courses like tailoring, tai-chi, internet, and ballroom dancing, among others.

It should be noted that funding for this program of activities had a few months ago with economic cooperation by private entities, contributions to which are no longer counted, as the City who has to face alone the payment of the same despite the enormous difficulties they have to face because of the current economic and social situation, he is forced to retract economic resources of the different municipal areas to help families Lorca who are faring worse.

The mayor of Major anticipated that is why to ensure their development over the coming months the City will fund two thirds of the total amount of each course, so that users only paid 8 20 euros per month would have to pay.

We are talking about a collaboration that will allow the maintenance of these recreation and leisure courses, without which it would be possible to go ahead with their implementation.

Thus we have communicated directly to groups of older people, emphasizing that we are now working to make this measure is temporary and will be recovered gratuity in successive course offerings.
