Among the valences of Santa Casa da Misericórdia da Vila da Ericeira (SCMVE) are home support, the nursing home, the day centre and assisted residences. This institution with more than three centuries of existence also helps more than one hundred families in collaboration with the Food Bank against Hunger.
In the article entitled “A lighthouse in Ericeira shining since 1678” (Um farol na Ericeira a brilhar desde 1678, original title), published on the Portuguese radio TSF website, its social support mission stands out.
