2. Information about Us

This website is owned and operated by Freesia Events. Freesia Events is part of the Freesia Group, Salou. The Freesia Group is a legally registered (NIF: G-43882273), Salou based, non-profit organisation, founded in 2002/3, organising regular events throughout the year to raise money for our supported Cancer Charities here in Spain.

All the profits from the activities and events we organise goes directly to the three cancer charities we support. They are:

AECC in Tarragona.
CNIO in Madrid.
AFANOC in Tarragona.

The Freesia group is run exclusively by a local team of VOLUNTEERS, giving their own valuable time and energy for this very worthy cause. Freesia volunteers organise all the events, put up posters, collect the money, control the sellers, man the food, drink and the Freesia stalls at all our organised events. All the money collected and donated goes directly to our supported cancer charities and the ambiance of the event should be based on this.
