Free professional counselling to parents and families who have lost a child aged 0 to 18, no matter the circumstances. Registered Charity Number (RCN): 20017651

A record-breaking night. But for us, it’s what happens next that matters most. 💛

The Lord Mayor of Dublin’s Charity Ball 2026 raised an incredible €170,480.58 — the highest amount ever achieved in the history of the event.

For FirstLight, this means €67,000 — funding over 1,200 hours of counselling for bereaved parents and families across Ireland.
Behind every one of those hours is a family navigating the heartbreak of losing a child. Support like this ensures they don’t have to face that journey alone.

We are deeply grateful to EHL Experiences, and to Larry and Nora Murrin, for nominating FirstLight as their charity partner.
And a heartfelt thank you to the Lord Mayor, Councillor Ray McAdam, and his team — especially Fanchea — for their incredible support.

This is what compassion looks like when a city comes together.
