Spanish regional subsidies for celiac disease

Overview

In Cantabria, Paula Fernández Viaña, the PRC candidate for the Presidency of Cantabria, has called for the release of 30,000 euros from the 2026 budget intended to assist families affected by celiac disease. She argued that administrative issues have prevented the distribution of funds meant to offset the cost of gluten-free food and stated that the Asociación de Celíacos de Cantabria (ACECAN) should not be burdened with the technical and administrative tasks required for distribution.

Separately, in Ciudad Real, the City Council is moving to approve a 20,000 euro subsidy program managed by the Department of Social Services, Seniors, and Family. This initiative allows eligible residents to receive up to 500 euros in a single payment to help cover the costs of specialized gluten-free products. Qualification requires Spanish nationality or legal residency, one year of registration in Ciudad Real, medical certification, and adherence to household income limits.
