British Consulate Open Day in Alcossebre, Castellón May 25th, 2011
The British Consul in Alicante will be visiting one of the most northern parts of his Consular district on 25th May to hold an Open Day for British residents in Alcossebre which is part of Alcala de Xivert, Castellón, where residents will have the opportunity to find out what the Consulate can do to help them.
He will be joined by the Pension, Benefit and Healthcare team who will give a presentation relating to people’s rights on access to healthcare and information on pensions and benefits entitlement in Spain.
British Consul Paul Rodwell said: “even though I’ve now been Consul since last August, I have still not had the opportunity to go to the north of our district. I think this event will be really worthwhile as it will enable us to let people in this area know that even though we are based quite a distance away in Alicante, we are still their Consulate and their concerns do matter to us. This is the first time we’ve held an Open Day in the Castellon region, which currently has nearly 2,000 British nationals on the padron.”
The Pension, Benefit and Healthcare team will also be available to take general questions and after the event to discuss people’s individual queries relating to their healthcare in Spain or any issues they may be having around pensions or benefits.

Each time one of these events is announced I ask when are we going to get one down here in Ayamonte or anywhere west of Sevilla.
We are of course much closer to a consulate in Portugal but as a matter of interest who/where is our Consul?
