Convent Christmas Fair Committee Fund Donates £1,000 to Special Olympics Gibraltar.

The Convent is pleased to announce a donation of £1,000 to Special Olympics Gibraltar.

The Committee recently agreed to distribute additional funds raised through the Fair to a number of Gibraltar charities and, in view of the appeal, they unanimously selected Special Olympics Gibraltar as a worthy beneficiary.

His Excellency the Governor welcomed Annie Risso to the Convent to receive the donation, which will help the charity continue creating sporting opportunities for athletes with intellectual disabilities and supporting their participation in the wider community.

After receiving the donation, Annie Risso said:

‘The donated money will go towards the costs involved in sending Team Gibraltar over to the Special Olympics World Games in Santiago, Chile, in October 2027, for which we have to raise around £130,000.’

This donation is the third of several charitable contributions that will be announced in the lead up to this year’s Convent Christmas Fair, which will take place on Thursday 26th November 2026 from 1200-1730. Further details will be announced in due course.
