Hayange swimmers raise funds for breast cancer screening in Octobre rose event

At Hayange's Ferralia aquatic center, swimmers participated in the "Bonnets roses" event, where each pool length swam raised €1 for the League Against Cancer as part of the Octobre rose breast cancer awareness campaign. Participants paid the regular pool entry fee, received a numbered pink cap, and swam to generate funds. The initiative aimed to support cancer research and screening, with a target of €6,000 requiring 6,000 lengths swum within a limited time. Marie, 46, a participant wearing a fluorescent pink shirt, noted she knows many women who lost their battle with breast cancer, highlighting the personal motivation behind the community fundraising effort.
