Darkness Into Light Charity Walk
A charity walk of HOPE to support those struggling with mental health issues.
Darkness Into Light Luxembourg. is proud to announce the seventh edition of our annual 5 km charity walk to raise awareness of suicide and self-harm. This walk is for anyone who has struggled or is still struggling through despair, for family members who want to show their loved ones that they understand and that they care; it's for those who want to do something positive and hopeful in memory of someone they have lost to mental health issues; it's for young people, and indeed people at every stage of life, who are finding it hard to cope; it's for parents to show their children that no matter what they are going through, they will be there for them. It is a walk of community, a walk of hope.
Since its inception in Ireland in 2009, this symbolic walk has grown to become a global movement, taking place across five continents. Darkness Into Light Luxembourg.2024 saw almost 650 people walking from the darkness of night towards the hope that every new day brings, raising 25,000 euros for our three partner charities, the Centre d’Information et Prévention of Ligue Santé Mentale, SOS Détresse and KJT who all support people in times of crisis, as well as Pieta House in Ireland the worldwide organiser of Darkness Into Light.
The walk will take place on 10 May at 5am, starting at the Hall Omnisport, 39 Montée de Clausen. Participants are encouraged to bring friends and family along. Tea and coffee will be served after the walk and participants will have the opportunity to talk with our partner charities.
