ONE of the Costa del Sol’s top beach club hotels has been raising thousands in aid of children’s charities.
In total, Sunset Beach Club has raised €10,136 in aid of the Butterfly Children’s Charity, Make-a-Wish Spain and Barrestown.
Hosting a number of music events at the popular Benalmadena hotel, general manager Mark Wardell said the hotel collected funds to ‘create special memories for children’.
“One could say we are in the ‘dream’ business; the business of creating special memories,” he said.
“Our ‘Sunset Breaks’ initiative was started two years ago so that, together with the help of our generous guests, we could collect funds which go towards creating special memories for children who are battling serious illness.”
He added: “Our job is to provide an enjoyable experience in a fun and safe environment.”
Butterfly Children Charity helps children with the skin condition EB, while Make-a-Wish supports children fighting life-threatening illnesses.
Barrestown is a residential programme of therapeutic recreation for children with cancer and other serious illnesses.
