The Raquel Payà Special Education College and the Salvation Army entity have also collaborated.
As usual, the preparation of the elements that decorate the tree has been made with recycled materials: plastic and cork stoppers, bottles, paper and cardboard ... For about three months, the volunteers of the associations have worked in the Design and creation of Christmas decorations that are very varied and colorful.
Celebration of the International Day of Functional Diversity
On the other hand, yesterday the event commemorating the International Day of Functional Diversity (December 3) was held in front of the City Hall, which was postponed due to the rain.
The entities that work with people with functional diversity have gathered to read a manifesto and celebrate this day with the "construction" of a wall against barriers, music, dance and an inclusive batucada.
