The lake in Betzuca Park in Sant Quirze del Vallès will be illuminated in green on the night of Monday, October 5, to commemorate World Meningitis Day.

Through this symbolic action, the Sant Quirze del Vallès City Council joins the initiative promoted by the Spanish Association against Meningitis and Sepsis (AEMS). The organization invites institutions and municipalities to light up emblematic spaces in green to raise awareness about this disease and show support for affected individuals and their families.
Meningitis is an infectious disease that can have serious health consequences. The commemoration of this day aims to raise public awareness, enhance knowledge of the disease, and emphasize the importance of prevention and early detection.
This participation is part of a sensitization movement that has involved numerous city councils, institutions, and entities across Spain in previous years.
