A Sabotage team member about the night;
“The news of Chester Bennington’s suicide shook us to our very cores. For some of us here at Sabotage, Hybrid Theory was our first introduction to heavier music and would end up putting us on a path that has made our lives richer and better because of it. Mental Health issues are rampant here in Ireland and government funding is extremely limited. Pieta House is a non-profit organisation providing a specialised treatment programme for people who have suicidal ideation or who participate in self-harming. They have a 24/7 helpline 1800 247 247. Please call or talk to a friend/family member if you are struggling with suicidal thoughts or are self-harming.”
For more details, please visit this link. Admission is between €4/€6 from 11 pm.
Pieta House was established in Lucan, Co. Dublin in 2006 as the centre for the prevention of suicide and self-harm. Since that time, we have opened centres across Ireland with a team of over 240 people offering a free service which you can contact using the information listed below.
If you need help, our therapists are on the line 24 hours a day: freephone 1800 247 247.
