The Benefits
We are very proud of our work for charity. Over the years the
club has
raised several thousands of euros, helping to support
amoungst others the
hospice "Arche Noah", the Neonatal clinic at the Uniklinik in Frankfurt
as well as the Riding School for the Disabled in Oberursel. The
charity we are supporting at present is the hospice Arche Noah.
Our local contacts provide introductions and advice on matters
regarding life in specific areas. You can relax and enjoy the
knowledge that there is always someone you can turn to in a crisis.
Using the benefit of their experience the members have compiled
a
Newcomers' Guide, containing all the things they wished they had known
when they arrived in the Frankfurt area. The guide contains
names
of English speaking doctors, dentists, schools, local amenities
and
even a food translation section.
The BCT can become an important link in your ability to settle in and
enjoy your new surroundings. |
