The area of the Department of Social Welfare, Equality and Immigration of the Arrecife City Council has adopted measures so that boys and girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can enjoy the San Ginés Festivities.
To this end, it has launched a Neurological Family Inclusion Service whose mission is to accompany these boys and girls in certain activities of the Festivities such as the Inflatables that will remain installed in El Reducto until this Thursday, the attractions of the Fairgrounds, as well as the children's musical La Superabuela this Sunday starting at 7:00 p.m. in the Parque Islas Canarias.
Likewise, and through the invaluable support of the Association of Showmen of Las Palmas, the Arrecife City Council will distribute among the most vulnerable families of the municipality the tickets donated by the Association chaired by Antonio Santana so that their sons and daughters can also enjoy the attractions installed in the Fairgrounds, which on Friday, August 18 and next Sunday, August 27 will celebrate Children's Day at the price of one euro for children and two euros for adults.
In this context, Mayor Yonathan de León emphasizes that "together with these initiatives, such as the support team for families, the municipal Government team will be adopting other measures aimed at ensuring that Arrecife is characterized as a supportive city, inclusive and egalitarian, in which all its population has the same possibilities and can access the same services in equal opportunities."
For her part, the Councilor for Social Welfare, Equality and Immigration, Maite Corujo, highlights "the contribution of the Association of Showmen in these actions and recalls that every day, from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., the Fairgrounds turns off the music and dims its lights to allow people with ASD to enjoy the attractions."
