2026 Cycle of Hope-Mizen to Malin Challenge marking World Suicide Prevention Day

World Suicide Prevention Day, held annually on September 10th, is a global call to action, raising awareness, breaking stigma, and encouraging open conversations around suicide and mental health.
By recognising this day, Cycle Against Suicide joins a worldwide movement to reduce suicide and offer hope to those who are struggling.

This year’s theme, “Changing the Narrative on Suicide”, calls for a shift from silence and misunderstanding to openness, empathy, and support. It urges individuals, communities, organisations, and governments to engage in honest dialogue about suicide, helping to break down barriers and foster a culture of understanding.

As part of this effort, Cycle Against Suicide hosts its annual ‘Mizen to Malin-Cycle of Hope’, a powerful cross-country cycle uniting people to raise awareness and show solidarity with those affected by suicide.
By joining our ‘Mizen to Malin-Cycle of Hope’ you are helping to change the narrative on suicide.

Please note: This is a fully supported event. It caters for all abilities from speed of 18 kmph, with cyclists grouped according to speed and abilities.
