The Castellers de Terrassa held their VIII Charity Day this weekend in Terrassa, focusing on raising visibility for multiple sclerosis in collaboration with the TEM organization.

The program began with a puzzle competition and a medical roundtable. Doctor Miquel Aranda from the Consorci Sanitari de Terrassa discussed the clinical aspects of the condition, while members of Terrassa Esclerosi Múltiple shared their personal experiences and daily challenges.
On Sunday, the activities moved to Plaça Vella. Following an empathy workshop and a public manifesto, the blauturquesa group performed their traditional human towers. They successfully completed a 5d7, their first of the season, along with a 4d7 with a pillar and a 3d7.
The event concluded at the Casa del Poble with a charity lunch and musical performances by Tons & Sons and the habanera group Sons Blaus, marking another successful year for this local solidarity initiative.
