Henpicked & Kelly

Henpicked is raising awareness of menopause in the workplace. In partnership with them, we’re pressing play on the conversation around the impact of menopause and how we can make the world of work a more menopause friendly place.

We’re proud to have educated our staff on a topic that affects our family, friends and colleagues but is so rarely discussed. Now, as a menopause friendly accredited business, we’re working to share that knowledge with others.

Barnardos & Kelly

Barnardos works for and with vulnerable children in Ireland. Their mission is to help transform children’s lives through the services they offer. As a team, we participated in a 5km walk, run or cycle which raised over €500 for the charity.

Barnardos supports parents in difficult situations and challenges society where it fails our children. We are delighted to have contributed to their fundraising efforts all while enjoying some time outdoors.

The Mater Foundation & Kelly

Team Kelly Ireland took part in the 100 miles in February Challenge to raise vital funds for patients at the Mater Public Hospital. Each team member walked, jogged or run 100 miles over the month. The team reached their target distance by the end of February (despite stormy weather!) and raised over €600 for the organisation.

The Mater Foundation hosts this annual fundraiser so that the Mater Hospital can continue to provide world-class patient care. The funds raised could support medical research or, the refurbishment of family rooms so patients and their loved ones have somewhere private and quiet.
