Remember to renew your Health Card

E-mail Print PDF

Medicine BottleYou need a Gibraltar Health card to access health care.  This card is combined with the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), which allows you access to emergency health care in other parts of Europe.  If your card expires, you won’t be able to get health care, so be careful to check the expiry date.  You can renew your card six months before the date of expiry. 

You may get a renewal application form from the Gibraltar Health Authority - take this to the Registration Office at the Primary Care Centre.  Their opening hours are 8.15 to 2pm and the address is 2nd Floor, ICC Building, 2A Main Street.  If you didn’t get a renewal application form, but you want to renew your card, get in touch with the Registration Office. You can phone them on: 200 72355.

Computer Fun Day

E-mail Print PDF
IT Fun DayThe first of this year’s Computer Fun Day for Seniors was held on 28th April 2009.

As the leading local information provider, we feel that senior citizens may be at a disadvantage if they can not use a computer to look for information on the Internet.
GibCab Computer Fun days allow senior citizens to get a taste of using computer equipment and software.  Remember that this is not a formal academic course; instead we focus on you and what you wish to learn about, with the atmosphere of an informal meeting.
Photos of the event are available in our gallery or click here.

We hope to hold the next Fun Day in November 2009.

The vision of the future presented here is challenging. It might require changes in the way which we work. 

In an increasingly complex world, comprehensive, independent, impartial advice from a trusted source about the whole range of issues people face is more necessary than ever before. So too is the commitment to equality and diversity that underpins all our work.
