Revised adoption procedures

South Tenerife Rescue Centre
We have sold 509 square metres of land up to now, making a total of 2,545 euros.
The plan to buy our own plot of land remains, possibly even where we are now renting, so are you prepared to buy a square metre of land for Live Arico?
At just five euros, you will receive a certificate from Live Arico for now, and your name and number of square metres purchased will be on a Roll of Honour at the new refuge.
Live Arico Shop news (in association with Tenerife Nursing and Care)
As you probably know by now, the shop is now on the frontline of Coral Mar, at ground level, next door to the Coral Bar.
This makes life far easier for everyone: cars unloading can park right outside, and our elderly and disabled customers no longer have to negotiate the stairs.
We now have a fantastic range of hand-made cards for all occasions. They are decorated beautifully and cost from two euros.
We are also grateful for items of furniture as we are working in conjunction with Fish for Furniture, at Los Abrigos and Idea, in Adeje. Call Rick to arrange pick-ups.
We are also grateful to receive any donations of cat and dog food at the shop.
Through popular demand, the shop is now open at the following times: Mon-Fri: 10-4pm. Sat: 10-2. Sunday: Closed. The shop will also be open when there’s an event on in Coral Mar Square,
