Your chance to ask officials questions about Brexit

- From the British Embassy

During this month and December, the British Consulate in Alicante is running a series of 17 events for UK nationals on Living in Spain and Brexit where British Consul Sarah-Jane Morris and her team will update residents with the latest informatio­n on Brexit and what this means for UK nationals living in Spain.

Please see below for a full list of dates and venues. You will be able to speak to an expert from the town hall about your 'padrón' and clarify how to register as resident in Spain under current rules. You will also be able to speak to local voluntary groups about the support networks that are available for UK nationals living in the area.

If you have specific questions on residency paperwork or anything else about living in Spain and Brexit, please do bring them along to discuss with one of the members of the Consular team. BREXPATS IN SPAIN, affiliated with the British in Europe group, will also be attending to assist people with legal and financial advice and to update on their current position with striving to defend the rights of British in Spain.

You do not have to be resident in each town to attend the events, since they are open for anyone who is interested in finding out more. For specific questions about the 'padrón' it would be helpful to attend an event where you live.

Advice for UK citizens living in the EU can be found here: https:// www.gov.uk/guidance/advice-for-british-nationals-travelling-and-living-ineurope. The British Embassy recommend following its Brits in Spain Facebook page, and to sign up for alerts from the gov.uk page to ensure you are getting accurate informatio­n.
