We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who got up early and joined us for the 2026 Darkness into Light walk along the quay, raising awareness for suicide prevention. 
To all the AMAZING HURT staff, Board members and such Dedicated volunteers who were there from 1:30 AM, to our local businesses who generously donated, and continue to support us every year. We can’t express our appreciation enough. To Encore choir who are core to our morning and bring such beautiful emotion.
And especially to everyone who signed up and took part, you made this event truly unforgettable. You should feel proud!
A special thank you to Tony, Sabrina, and family, especially Olivia Edgar, for cutting the ribbon and starting the walk. Your energy and the funds you’ve raised in memory of your beloved Jack, supporting multiple local charities, set the tone for an inspiring morning and remind us of the power of community.
We are also deeply grateful to our inspiring leader and founder, Sadie. Events like this simply wouldn’t be possible without her vision, dedication, and passion.
Finally, without our amazing city, whose support, generosity, and spirit make every walk, every fundraiser, and every moment truly extraordinary. You are the best!
By coming together, walking, donating, and raising your voices, we are creating awareness, breaking the silence, and showing that no one has to face their struggles alone.
Thank you for being part of this years walk , together, we can make a real difference.
