On June 1, the Pink Ladies’ Walk for Life was held at Emerald Isle Pub in La Florida. The event embodied the spirit of compassion and community.
Organised by the tireless Maria Wilson and her dedicated team of Pink Ladies, the event brought together walkers, supporters, and sponsors with one shared goal – to raise funds in support of local cancer services.
Pink Ladies’ Walk for Life raised over €9,000; thanks to an incredible turnout, a grand total of €9,023 was raised through walk registrations and generous sponsorships.
One particular team was a group of six from Entre Naranjos, who walked under the name “The 6 Steps”. Their efforts alone raised an astonishing €3,110. The spirit of this event was characterized by enthusiasm and determination. The group announced that they would aim to surpass their previous record and set new goals at the next Walk for Life.
Maria Wilson, who has devoted countless hours to supporting those affected by cancer through the AACC and monthly support groups at Flamenca Beach, was over the moon with the result. “Every euro raised helps to continue our missions. She said, “I am so grateful to everyone involved, who donated and helped us along the journey.”
The Walk for Life is more than just a fundraising event – it’s a symbol of hope, resilience, and community strength. Next year’s event is already planned, and it will be bigger than ever if last year’s success can be a guide.
