Third time doing it. It's so worthwhile dragging your ass out of bed in the middle of the night

Dont jump on me..

Couple of months back I was in a very very dark place more like a danger dark place.

First off people where amazing on here and still are towards me you know who you are..

Secondly I rang pieta house and it was closed doors they didnt want to know me. I obviously went else where with information from this site and also directed to other places from my work place amazing support from the crew. Everyone was so supportive.

I done a little digging about pieta house and I was amazed of how much some staff earn yes a wage. Where did the volunteering go?

Secondly most forums and social media and other online reviews.

I found most where not getting answers on the phone. They where also getting doors shut in their face they felt they where not welcomed.

So this year I am doing the walk for a local river search an rescue team. Who are amazing bunch of people and what they do for not a cent €- morning noon and night they patrol the river every weekend in case someone is at risk and upset etc.

So on the night ill be walking but not on behalf of pieta house I have my own Tshirt printed and ready to go..

just my opinion above

Enjoy the walk theres always hope trust me

Darkness into Light is an annual walking event and fundraiser held, primarily, across Ireland. Participants meet before dawn (4.15am) on a particular Saturday in May and walk or run for 5km to meet the sunrise. Founded in 2009 by psychologist Joan Freeman as a fundraiser in the Phoenix Park for Pieta House suicide prevention and counselling,
