In partnership with the Al Jalila Foundation, Darkness into Light Walk is utterly unique and serves to unite communities and raise awareness for Mental Health across 180 venues, spread as far afield as Europe, Australia, Canada and New Zealand. This year Hunter Foods will be supporting and sharing the light in Dubai with our Hunter's Gourmet Hand Cooked Potato Chips. Originating from Ireland, this event brings thousands of people together at the darkest point of the night, to walk a 5km route in solidarity, as dawn is breaking. The symbolism of commencing out of the darkness and walking into the light gives the occasion its impact in the community, delivering a potent message of hope to all. It highlights the struggles of those suffering from a mental illness in the darkness and celebrates hope for the future, surrounded by a supportive community walking into the light.
Darkness into Light is an unrestricted event; people of all ages and nationalities are invited and encouraged to attend and unite together. Walkers will meet by 3:45am (yes, it’s early but it’s worth it) at the following locations across the UAE:
  • Dubai – SALT, Kite Beach at 3.45am
  • Abu Dhabi – Hiltonia Beach Club, Corniche
  • Al Ain – Green Mubazzarah Park, Jebel Haffet
  • Ras Al Khaimah – Al Marjan Island
If tiredness gets the better of your sense of direction in the early hours of the morning, simply search for ‘Darkness into Light Dubai’ on Google Maps and that will bring you right to them! Learn more: https://dil.pieta.ie/
