Alex & Antonia fundraising for Pieta

This year, we are running the Irish Life Dublin Marathon for Pieta! Pieta is a charity that supports people and their families who are experiencing mental health crisis. Crisis can be such a frightening time. The timescales you operate on shrink to minutes, hours, days at most. Anything beyond becomes out of focus. In periods of such uncertainty, it’s important to look for hope in every place it could be. Pieta are one of the sources of hope that people in Ireland can tap into. They provide crucial services which remain completely free of charge. 87% of their income is derived from fundraising events like this one so any donations would be truly appreciated. A lot of their strategy as a charity is around finding Hope in Action. Alex & I running the marathon is our version of doing just that :) If you can’t donate, check in with your loved ones instead, it’s just as valuable. Thankyou so much for visiting our fundraising page. Antonia and Alex

About Pieta

Pieta' vision is a world where suicide, self-harm and stigma have been replaced by hope, self-care and acceptance. By supporting us you will allow us to strive to make this a reality. Without your support we would not have been able to give hope to over 60,000 people since we first opened our doors in 2006. In 2020 Pieta delivered over 52,000 hours of intervention and bereavement counselling. We managed over 70,000 crisis support calls. All of our services are provided free of charge. This is only possible because of you.
