Abreast for Cancer saw breast cancer survivors, friends and family members who had walked from Sliema and Bormla to the Valletta Waterfront greet other breast cancer survivors who had rowed boats from Birgu to the Valletta Waterfront Laguna. The rowing symbolised our daily endeavour to navigate challenges and keep moving forward, adjusting to our new selves and new lifestyles.

The rowers were given a hero’s welcome by the walk participants and greeted with healthy snacks and lively tunes played by the Marsa Trinita Band. Mrs Michelle Muscat presented them with a token to mark the occasion.
