Pieta, the suicide prevention charity, is focussing a spotlight on the ‘Know the Signs of Suicide’ initiative during the month of September.

During 2020 Pieta delivered over 52,000 hours of intervention and bereavement counselling, answered over 70,000 crisis support calls and texts and directly supported over 600 households impacted and bereaved by suicide.

For the second time Castlebar man Johnny Oosten has taken to his bike and made his way from north to south along the Wild Atlantic Way to raise money for Pieta House, suicide and self harm centre.

Earlier this month, in excess of 150,000 people woke up and walked from Darkness Into Light with Pieta House, crossing the finish line in more than 150 locations around the globe.

Training Entrepreneur Newbies (TEN), a group of adult learners engaged on a QQI-6 entrepreneurship training course run by Athlone Training Centre, have organised a walk of the Greenway to raise awareness of suicide and the supports that are available.

This Sunday, Pieta House will host “Misneach - Nourishing Hope” in Galway. Coinciding with four similar events in Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Tralee, the reflective events take place on the cusp between the months of November (traditionally a month of remembrance, honour and reflection) and December (traditionally a month of hope, joy and celebration) – to create a space and time for people to honour and celebrate lives present and lives passed and to move into December and the Christmas season with hope and celebration.
