The Pinktober Breast Cancer Awareness Month walks were held territory-wide.

Fahie also extended her heartfelt gratitude to the numerous companies, organisations, individuals, and donors who generously supported the event, especially Fabian Devonish and his team,

“We extend our heartfelt thanks to the numerous companies, organisations, individuals, and donors who made this event possible. Special recognition goes to Fabian Devonish and his team, as well as our dedicated team at BVICS. Kudos to all.”

The Breast Cancer Walk serves as a significant platform to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research, support, and education.

The remarkable turnout demonstrates the collective commitment of the community to join forces in the fight against breast cancer.

Participants all wore bright pink t-shirts and walked side by side, showing solidarity and support for those affected by this disease.

The BVI Cancer Society is committed to raising awareness and providing support to families affected by breast cancer.
