Guardamar breast cancer walk brings community together for October fundraiser

Walkers are being invited to take to the streets of Guardamar del Segura in October to support the fight against breast cancer and raise awareness of the disease.

The March Against Breast Cancer will take place on Sunday, October 25, bringing local residents together under the message “Walking for the same cause.” Participants will set off from Plaza del Ayuntamiento at 10:00 AM.

Breast cancer walk starts at 10:00 AM

The event is being organised by the Guardamar branch of the Alicante Association for the Fight Against Cancer.

Residents are encouraged to join the walk and show their support for people affected by breast cancer, while helping to increase awareness of the disease within the local community.

The march will begin from Plaza del Ayuntamiento at 10:00 AM on Sunday, October 25.

The event forms part of local efforts to bring people together around a shared cause, combining fundraising with a visible demonstration of support for cancer patients and their families.

T-shirts and race numbers cost €7

Registration is already open for anyone wishing to take part in the October walk.

Participants can purchase a race number and commemorative T-shirt for €7.

People who would like to contribute to the cause but are unable to join the walk can instead purchase a symbolic race number for €1, allowing them to support the fundraiser without taking part on the day.

Race numbers and T-shirts are available in advance from the association’s Guardamar headquarters at Calle San Francisco 19, ground floor.

They can be purchased on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM.

Walk raises awareness and support

As well as raising funds, the Guardamar march aims to increase awareness of breast cancer and show support for those living with the disease.

The Alicante Association for the Fight Against Cancer works to support cancer patients and their families while promoting prevention and awareness initiatives throughout the province.

Fundraising events also help bring communities together and provide residents with a practical way to contribute to the association’s work.

The Guardamar March Against Breast Cancer takes place on Sunday, October 25, with the walk leaving Plaza del Ayuntamiento at 10:00 AM.
