The mayor of Mèze, Thierry Baëza, kicked off the 2026 edition of 'Octobre Rose' on Friday, October 2nd, alongside Patricia Leroy, municipal councilor responsible for the Hérault Committee of the League Against Cancer. Initiated by the town hall and the CCAS, a collective mobilization is organized throughout October. Associations, health professionals, merchants, and local stakeholders are uniting to raise awareness about the prevention and screening of breast cancer.
« 'Octobre Rose' is above all a collective mobilization. Every initiative counts to raise awareness about screening, support those affected by the disease, and advance research », emphasized Patricia Leroy. Numerous solidarity actions are planned in Mèze during October. All donations collected will be fully remitted by the City to the League Against Cancer.
Through this campaign, the City and the CCAS reiterate an essential message: early detection saves lives.
