Please support our Darkness Into Light fundraiser.

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


2026 will be third year we have climbed Carrauntoohil overnight by Torchlight to be at the highest point in Ireland for the Pieta House Sunrise on May 9th! 


A group of friends and family and friends of friends from the length and breath of the country, Dingle to Dundalk, Douglas to Doolin! Wexford to Monaghan and many places in between will come together to share in a great experience that’s physically challenging but hugely rewarding as we reach the peak in the Dark watch an amazing sunrise and return in the full light of Day! 

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 our 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.
