Support our 10k run to help stop suicide
We are taking part in Darkness Into Light 2025 on Saturday, 10th May in Bodrum, Turkey running 10k to raise vital funds for Pieta to support people affected by suicide and self-harm. We are running in memory of James Walker, the son of Ruth's good friends Linda and Alan, who took his life on 1st March 2025. He couldn’t save himself, but hopefully the donations we raise will help to save another troubled person.
You can help keep Pieta's essential services FREE and available to anyone who needs them by donating now to help us reach our fundraising goal. Every euro counts. A small donation can make a big impact.
Together, we can light up the darkness and create a brighter future for everyone.
Thank you so much for your support,
Ruth & Geraldine
