Annual cycle from Sandymount to Howth

Take Part Your Own Way organised by Mark Byrne

Our fundraising will help Pieta provide

38 helpline hours

10 crisis counselling sessions

4 therapy sessions

Please support my Darkness Into Light cycle from Sandymount to Howth fundraiser.

I’m taking part in Darkness Into Light 2026 to support Pieta and bring hope to people affected by suicide and self-harm.

Every day, people find themselves in moments of deep distress. They feel overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure where to turn. Pieta is there for them, offering free, professional support at a time when it matters most.

Events like Darkness Into Light are vital. Around 80% of Pieta’s funding comes from public fundraising, including this event, proudly supported by Electric Ireland. This fundraising helps keep Pieta’s suicide and self-harm prevention services free and accessible for anyone who needs them, anywhere in Ireland.

By donating to my fundraiser, you are helping to ensure that someone in crisis can reach a trained therapist, be listened to, and feel less alone in that moment.

A €24 donation could help answer two calls to Pieta's 24-hour Crisis Helpline, moments that can make a real difference and even save lives.

Thank you so much for supporting me and for helping Pieta continue this life-saving work.

Riding a bike??? But Rigsby ...you said.... "Exercise? I don't need exercise. I spent four years dodging shells in the desert. That keeps you trimmer than any three-speed Raleigh." GOOD LUCK!!! Sounds like a wonderful charity .
