Thanks to the continuous support received over the years, the Arka Foundation this year, will be celebrating the 10th Anniversary since the opening of the Respite Centre at Ghajnsielem, prior to which Gozitans could only avail themselves of services at Dar tal-Providenza and Dar il- Kaptan in Malta.
