The Pink October Walk mobilized hundreds of people in Caminha and Vila Praia de Âncora on a morning of solidarity and awareness for breast cancer prevention.

The initiative took place simultaneously starting from Caminha and Vila Praia de Âncora, with participants covering different routes until they met at Moledo Beach. The most symbolic moment of the morning occurred on the sand of that beach, where a human pink ribbon was formed, representing the unity of all in the fight for prevention and early detection of breast cancer.
The good weather accompanied the initiative, providing ideal conditions for a day of conviviality, physical activity, and sharing. The Pink October Walk was an opportunity to strengthen community ties and highlight the importance of early detection in improving treatment outcomes for this disease.
This activity was carried out by the Câmara Municipal de Caminha in partnership with the União de Freguesias de Caminha e Vilarelho, Moledo e Cristelo, and the Junta de Freguesia de Vila Praia de Âncora.
The Municipality thanks all participants, partner entities, and volunteers who contributed to the success of this initiative, making it a moment of great significance for the county.
