This year, we celebrated Pride with a coffee morning across our sites and offices. This allowed us to come together and celebrate being a part of a company that keeps diversity and inclusion at the heart of it’s culture.
As part of this, we’ve also distributed whiteboards, inviting everyone to pledge their respect and support for their colleagues and communities.
At PJ Hegarty, we’re proud to champion a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and free to be themselves, not just during Pride, but every day of the year.
On Wednesday, June 18th, eight PJ Hegarty sites across Ireland took part in our Centenary Spinathon Challenge.
The three-hour event saw four sites from both the Eastern and Southern regions go head to head, in support of two incredible causes.
The Southern Region spun for the Cork University Hospital Neonatal Unit, while the Eastern Region cycled for ASIAM, Ireland’s autism charity.
To keep the energy high, a live leader board tracked the progress of each site in real time, sparking some healthy rivalry as teams raced to rack up the kilometres. For every kilometre cycled, PJ Hegarty donated €10 to each region’s chosen charity. This along with the bragging rights gave the teams an extra push.
A huge well done to everyone who took part and supported this fantastic initiative!
Watch here:
Genevie Rose and Barry Casey presented the funds raised from the Southern Region Spinathon to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit team at Cork University Hospital.
They were joined by members of the Neonatal Unit, including Midwife Miriam Casey, NICU Manager Grainne McNabola, and Consultant Dr. Mmoloki Kenosi, to officially hand over the donation.
On Friday, June 13th, PJ Hegarty proudly sponsored and participated in the Plane Pull Challenge for Ronald McDonald House Charity, in the Casement Aerodrome, Baldonnel. Nineteen other teams joined us in pulling an Irish Air Corps plane, all in support of an incredible cause!
Ronald McDonald House Charities Ireland, a local charity close to our hearts, provides vital support to families with seriously ill children when they need it most.
It was a brilliant day for a great cause, and our team thoroughly enjoyed the challenge, particularly the team-building aspect and the opportunity to come together.
Our EHS department is proud to launch this year’s Health and Wellbeing campaign, Small Changes, Big Difference.
The campaign is about making small manageable healthy changes to our everyday routine, which can make a big difference to our overall health and wellbeing.
Over the coming year, the campaign will promote small practical tips each month, to help make lasting changes while supporting one another along the way. Whether it’s getting more active, eating better, checking in on your mental health, every small change adds up.
On Thursday, May 15th, we had the pleasure of welcoming clients, partners, and friends to the Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin to celebrate a major milestone, 100 wonderful years in business.
It was a special evening reflecting on our journey, the achievements we’ve shared, and the incredible people who have supported us along the way.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to all who have been part of our story over the years. Here’s to the next chapter!
