Event description

Darkness Into Light UAE is a very special initiative, one which endeavours to bring communities together in support of a very worthy cause. This initiative derives from a unique worldwide event that takes place in over 180 venues across Europe, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and now the United Arab Emirates.

The event aims to raise Mental Health Awareness and strives to bring communities together to show their support to those who are struggling. The walk is an amazing experience and highlights the power of communities who support one another.

This year is a momentous year as DIL UAE will take place in four emirates; Abu Dhabi, Dubai and for the first time Al Ain and Ras Al Khaimah.
