We have been growing at a rapid pace and it is important sometimes to take a step back and tonote the work we are doing, the services weprovide and the wider development of thecompany. To this end we have been verypleased to partner with Heneghan who havepositively assisted with our presence in themedia in Ireland and the UK.
As we have commenced our journey for the delivery of Ireland's Search and Rescue Service from the end of 2024, we engaged with Heneghan to be our strategic communications partner for both political guidance and media communications. The team helped set up a solid reputational foundation as we look to transition towards this essential service.
It is important that the work of great organisations and people across the island of Ireland is recognised. To achieve this outcome, The Ireland Funds has partnered with Heneghan for a number of years. Their services have been valuable in raising meaningful awareness of our philanthropic programmes across the island.
