Limerick girl dreams up anti-suicide campaign

A teenage girl, who lost a cousin to suicide, has launched an online campaign to light up bridges in her native Limerick with "hopeful" anti-suicide messages, to try to prevent others taking their own lives.

Leaving Certificate student Katie Whelan came up with the idea after having a dream over Christmas, in which her late cousin Lisa - who died by suicide three years ago - saw a message on a bridge which changed her mind about suicide.
