Exciting news to announce!! Hannahstown Community Association and the club will be hosting its first Darkness into Light event on Saturday 6th May 2017.

Each participant will register and receive a Darkness into Light t-shirt. On the morning of the event we will begin a 5k walk @ 4.15 am together in darkness from Lámh Dhearg club and walk a circular route finishing back at the Lámh Dhearg in the light as the sun rises. Therefore walking from 'darkness into light.'

Each participant will be welcomed back with refreshments in the clubrooms. 

It will be an absolutely enthralling experience attracting many people from all communities to walk together spreading a positive message of hope and support. 

Darkness into light began in 2009 the first walk taking place in Phoenix Park and has since become a worldwide movement raising awareness for depression, suicide and self-harm. Apart from raising funds for a local mental health charity the main purpose of the walk is to gather together and become a message of HOPE.

We are confident that our club members and local community will positively support and participate in this unique but exciting initiative. 

Registration will open early March.
