Barbadians turned out in their numbers to support this year’s CIBC FirstCaribbean’s Walk for the Cure.

Many of the estimated 20 000 people who were decked out in pink T-shirts began the trek at Warrens around 3:30 p.m.

Some ran, walked and even skated from the starting point to Gordon Cummins Highway, across Husbands, St James, Clermont Road and finished at the starting point.

Some of the participants said they were taking part to raise awareness and honour the memories of loved ones who passed away from breast cancer.  (TG)
