More than 1,000 people wearing the distinctive pink T-shirts participated in the Marea Rosa (pink wave) march against breast cancer in Torremolinos on Sunday (27 October).

Organised by the town hall and the local branch of the Spanish cancer association, AECC, the walkers gathered in Plaza Costa del Sol at 10am, before embarking on the awareness stroll under the slogan ‘Pink is only pink, but with you it is support and research’. These events have taken place in several towns along the coast and are part of the cancer association’s campaign to raise awareness in society of what it means to live with breast cancer.
