Darkness Into Light 2025

In 2009, in the Phoenix Park in Dublin, 400 people set off on the inaugural Darkness Into Light 5km walk to raise funds for Pieta. From small beginnings, the movement has continued to grow, and now participation averages 120,000 people each year for Darkness Into Light in Ireland, with 200 official walks taking place across the world in 15 countries and 5 continents.

Electric Ireland has proudly supported Darkness Into Light for thirteen years. This important fundraising event takes place this year on Saturday, 10th May.  The first step to supporting Pieta is taken long before participants reach the start line, by signing up at www.darknessintolight.ie .This year don’t just show up, sign up!

"I am honoured to be an ambassador for Darkness Into Light 2025. Signing up is more than just registering for your local walk; it's taking the first step towards providing hope and support to those who need it most. Having struggled with my own mental health in the past, and lost some loved ones to suicide, I know how important it is to have someone available on the end of the phone to speak to. Darkness Into Light plays a crucial role in enabling Pieta to provide that support to people when it is needed most. I urge everyone to visit darknessintolight.ie and sign-up today."
