    LARES

    Lares is a federation providing residential homes and care services to the elderly. Lares centres and services differentiate themselves in two key ways: they are non-profit-making and involve caring for residents with dignity, humanity and consideration.
     
    The Lares Federation is made up of 17 different associations, representing all of Spain’s Autonomous Communities (regions). In total, Lares brings together almost 900 individual organisations (homes and day centres), which house or care for more than 70,000 elderly people. These people are in turn looked after by more than 33,000 staff members and 9,500 volunteers.
