1 therapy sessions

Please support my Darkness Into Light fundraiser.

I’m taking part in Darkness Into Light on May 9th to help raise funds for Pieta. Like previous years I will be doing it as a live stream on https://twitch.tv/ladyb_arts . This year on stream I will be trying to create a crochet blanket which will then be given away to one lucky donor. Please support me by donating to my fundraising page https://www.darknessintolight.ie/s/150744/298097  #DIL2026 #darknessintolight2026

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.
