The following does almost exactly what you want:

\begin{description}
\item[] \textbf{Asociación Castellano Leonesa de Afectados de  
Retinosis Pigmentaria} …further information…
item[] \textbf{Asociación de Padres de Sordociegos de España  
(APASCIDE) Barcelona} …further information…
.
.
\end{description}

I say "almost exactly" because, while hyphenation works,  the  
indentation of the first line after \item[] is somewhat smaller than  
the natural indentation of the description environment but you can  
tweak that.
