Charlie Bird said he cried “tears of joy” after a room in Pieta House’s brand new therapy centre was named in his honour.
The former journalist launched the charity’s new therapy centre in Swords on Friday alongside his wife Claire. Charlie has raised over €1.6 million to date for the suicide awareness group through his famous Climb with Charlie initiative.
The 73-year-old revealed on Twitter that he found the launch incredibly emotional and was touched by the kind gesture from the charity. The room named after Charlie was unveiled with a gold plaque thanking him for his support.
