In-person walks are back for Darkness Into Light 2022.
Darkness into Light is upon us once more. On the 7th May, thousands of people around the country will wake at the crack of dawn to walk at their chosen location in aid of Pieta House.
If you're in need of some caffeine after your early start, here's a few cafés in Dublin that are opening early just for the occasion.
Bold & Brass
Location: Clontarf
If your chosen walking route is in Clontarf, then Bold and Brass Coffee is where you'll get your morning cuppa. Opening at 4:30am for Darkness Into Light, the coffee truck will have a collection bucket on-site for Pieta, and will donate 20% of their morning proceeds to the cause as well.
