Last week at our Waterfront project in Dublin, we welcomed Dale and Ray from the Lighthouse Club as part of the #MakeitVisible campaign.
Dale and Ray delivered two impactful talks on our site. They shared personal stories about their mental health journeys and the importance of recognising and supporting others who may need help by referring them to the Lighthouse charity.

For National Workplace Wellbeing Day, sleep expert Tom Coleman hosted a Sleep Masterclass webinar for our Ireland and UK teams.
Sleep is a key pillar in our overall health and wellbeing, influencing everything from physical health to mental clarity and emotional resilience. Our team learned about sleep stages, creating a sleep-friendly environment, balancing work-life demands, and practical tips for better sleep and stress relief.
The webinar gave our teams valuable tools for cultivating healthy sleep habits and enhancing their overall wellbeing going forward.
