The Municipal Women’s Information Centre links sexual-health education with support during the town’s fair.
The workshop announced for 14 September will address drug-facilitated assault, consent, contraception and infections. A community nurse from El Rancho will lead it, primarily for teenagers and young people, with adult women also welcome.
The council renews a prevention initiative launched in 2024, introducing a different type of drink cover. The 2026 festival distribution includes 1,500 covers for Interpeñas and another 1,000 for two afternoon-event bars. The new fabric covers can be washed and reused, according to the council’s announcement.
