P&O Cruises Arcadia donate 100 kg of goods to ENTRAJUDA, a Port of Lisbon “Cruises for the Community” Program
The Port of Lisbon announces that passengers aboard the Arcadia cruise ship from P&O Cruises (Carnival UK Group) , currently on a 99-night world cruise, have donated clothing, books, and accessories to ENTRAJUDA – the Association for Supporting Social Solidarity Institutions.
This action marks the first donation of goods under the “Cruises for the Community” program, an initiative launched in 2024 by the Port of Lisbon to strengthen the relationship between cruise companies and the Lisbon community.
Carnival UK has also been a pioneer in partnering with the Blue Flag Association for Environment and Education (ABAAE) for beach clean-up initiatives in Portugal. In October 2024, crew members of the Queen Anne and Britannia ships took part in a beach clean-up event at Algés Beach, coordinated by the ABAAE.
The ‘Cruises for the Community’ program demonstrates how cruise tourism can contribute positively to Lisbon beyond its economic impact, and these initiatives reflect the commitment from port of Lisbon to promote more sustainable tourism, integrated with the needs of the local community
The program includes volunteer activities by crew members and passengers in social and environmental actions, showcasing how the Port of Lisbon and its partner companies are working together to create lasting value for the city and its residents.
