Pieta House's annual Darkness into Light walks will occur nationwide on May 10th, starting at 4:15 AM. Initially held in 2009 with 400 participants, the event has expanded dramatically to include over 150,000 participants across nearly every county in Ireland. It has also gained international recognition, taking place in 150 locations worldwide. In Mayo, local efforts, particularly in Swinford led by Cathal Kelly, emphasize community spirit and fundraising, with an expected 350 attendees eager to participate in this important event, harmonizing a collective purpose towards suicide awareness.
"I'm still walking, I'm like Forrest Gump, I don't know how to stop."
"We'd be coming up to about 350 [people], the community effort is fantastic... you only have to ask once and jobs are done."
