Lena Wallin

President Altamira

My name is Lena Wallin and I’m the new president in Altamira. I’m a former Swedish teacher who now live in Altamira with my husband, many months of the year, but not full time. Besides being a teacher, I’m used to this type of committee work from Sweden where we live, but also professionally from the teacher’s union local, regional and national

I look forward to working with the committee the coming year. We are a good team with a lot of combined knowledge.

Best regards

Lena Wallin

We all want to have a clean and nice environment and there are several options within Las Ramblas to keep our community clean. Maximizing recycling is a vital component of sustainable living as it supports environmental protection and resource efficiency, an essential practice for individuals and communities. Let’s maximize the use of the recycling bins.

Need something to read?

Welcome to our new Community library!

The library is located on top of the hill in the small parking space opposite Avda Ramblas de Oleza 200.

Borrow a book and leave a book you have already read. Or leave several books for others to enjoy.

Sharing is caring!

Solar panels on private houses are rather a recent initiative in Spain, therefore the committee has defined a set of rules and recommendations which could evolve if needed

Emergency Medical Centre 

There is a local medical centre, Nuevo Centro de Salud which, at the time of preparing this document, is staffed 24 hours a day. 

It is situated not far from the Farmacia at the roundabout by the bridge over the N332, exit 48 at Campoamor. As you enter the roundabout take the 9 o’clock exit and follow the road until a “Y” junction where you will find the centre which is signposted.

Take your EHIC card  (European Health Insurance card, issued in your home country) and passport/EU identity card, without these items you will have to pay for the consultation. 

You can telephone for an appointment by calling 9657 21400 – 09.00 – 22.00 & Sat 09.00 -15.00. 

For those living permanently in Spain we suggest, as soon as it is possible, that you register there and this needs to be renewed every year.  Remember Your EHIC card needs renewing – frequency varies by country.

Non EU-citizens need to inquire on any applicable regulations re Health Insurance card/policy.
