Support my walk to help stop suicide
On Saturday, 9th of May, I’ll be taking part in Darkness Into Light 2026. This is a walk that holds deep meaning for so many people, myself included.
I’m walking to show support for those who are struggling right now, to honour those we’ve lost, and to help ensure Pieta can continue to be there for people when they need support most.
Every step I take is for someone who may feel unseen, unheard, or overwhelmed. It’s my way of saying, “You are not alone. Help is available. There is always light, even when it’s hard to see it.”
If you’re in a position to support my walk, please know that every single euro helps Pieta continue to answer the call and guide people towards hope at some of the darkest moments of their lives.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being part of this and for supporting me along the way.

A message ...
I was genuinely saddened today to read that Kildare has a higher than average suicide rate.
It hits close to home. I’ve sadly lost friends to suicide, and it’s something that never really leaves you.
Because of that, I’ve decided to do a fundraiser for Pieta House as part of their Darkness Into Light campaign.
I know it’s a difficult time for a lot of people, so this isn’t about big donations .. every small contribution helps.
More importantly, it’s about awareness.
Sometimes people don’t need solutions .. they just need someone there.
If you can support, even in a small way, I’d really appreciate it. And if nothing else, check in on someone.
Let’s get behind this.
Thank you to my Sponsors
