Dawn walkers unite in Inistioge for Darkness Into Light effort
Some of the participants in this year's Inistioge Darkness Into Light dawn walk.
Big crowds attended this year's Inistioge Darkness Into Light dawn walk.
A large crowd gathered in Inistioge in the early hours of Saturday morning, May 6, for this year’s Darkness Into Light walk, raising more than €6,000 for Pieta House – the suicide prevention charity.
A sea of yellow passed through the beautiful village on a dry Saturday morning, crossing the bridge and completing the walk, with many people who died by suicide remembered across the country as the dawn broke on a new day.
“We had a great turn out for the walk with a lot of new faces joining us this year,” said John Gilsenan of Cois Abhann centre in the south Kilkenny village.
“We invited everyone to join us in Cois Abhann for a cuppa and chat afterwards. Monies raised for Pieta House will be in excess of €6,000,” he said.
