Mallorca: Balearic care grants rise to €2.7 million

Palma, Mallorca: The Balearic Government raises the ceiling for care grants to €2.7 million, backing non-profit projects for people with disabilities and certain illnesses. Its cabinet approved the increase on 13 November for projects running in 2026 and 2027.

Private non-profit groups run the projects, which provide care, prevention and support for personal independence. The grants aim to help people with disabilities, rare diseases, cancer or neurodegenerative diseases take part in society. Government spokesman Antoni Costa said the larger budget was intended to cover as many applications as possible.

On 10 July, the cabinet had authorised Families, Social Welfare and Dependency Care minister Sandra Fernández to allocate up to €1.2 million to this grant round. The previous round, covering 2024 and 2025, had €1.1 million.
