Please support the Gaeil Fhanada Darkness Into Light fundraiser.
Portsalon Pier Saturday 9th May at 5am
Gaeil Fhanada and the fanad swimming group are organising 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.
