Last July 22nd, 2024 the Benalmádena Town Hall through the Department of Social Welfare and Dependency, agreed to award a grant of €25,000 to the Cudeca Foundation to fund the project for another year: "PLAY-PAL: CARING AT THE END OF LIFE THROUGH PLAY"
In compliance with the objectives of the Benalmádena Town Council's Strategic Plan for 2024, this is a project of social interest that brings added value to the community by normalising the daily lives of pediatric patients, their families, and caregivers.
With play and recreational activities at its core, the project promotes patient well-being across all levels through CUDECA Hospice Foundation’s interdisciplinary pediatric palliative care team: physical and functional through physiotherapy; affective, emotional, and social-familial via psychological care and social work; and social and recreational with play as the primary catalyst.
Once again, we would like to thank the Benalmádena Town Council for its commitment to our comprehensive care model, which involves the community through volunteer participation.
