The sixth annual Darkness Into Light fundraising event got underway at 4.15am on Saturday morning, 10th May as an estimated 80,000 people turned out for dawn walks at 37 locations across the country and two venues overseas.
Crowds of families, friends, school children, work colleagues and even dogs walked and ran a 5km route in locations from Cork City to Letterkenny, Galway City to our very own Bray Town, in solidarity with those who had lost loved ones to suicide.
Darkness Into Light has grown phenomenally over the years, from 200 people walking in the Phoenix Park in 2009 to 80,000 people taking part across the country and overseas on Saturday.
Around 2500 participants took part in the walk in Bray including a number of teachers and parents from St. Peter’s. Well done to all those involved.
