RIP.ie Remembers is a virtual walking challenge that invites you to walk 20km in memory of someone you love. This March, participants across the country will come together in a shared movement of remembrance, connection, and hope, turning personal reflection into positive impact. For every charity registrant, a square foot of native woodland will be planted, creating a living legacy of remembrance.
RIP.ie is a trusted platform that brings compassionate communities together in times of loss, and in 2026 we proudly celebrate our 20th year. To mark this milestone, we’re inviting our community to take part in a meaningful nationwide event — a 20km walk during March 2026. This shared journey offers an opportunity to honour loved ones, support local charities, and celebrate the strength of community. By turning remembrance into a real-world experience, shared grief becomes shared purpose, fostering healing and unity. For every charity registrant, a square foot of native woodland will be planted, creating a living legacy of remembrance.
