We do this by delivering ambitious communications campaigns for our clients.

Our clients include charities and advocacy groups campaigning on important societal issues; public-sector bodies; national and international research and innovation organisations; membership associations; social enterprises; and cultural festivals and major public events. We are a member of the Ultra-European Network of Pomilio Blumm, a leading citizen communications company, headquartered in Italy and with partners in almost 70 countries around the world.

The WorkEqual campaign aims to challenge gender inequalities in the workplace. It is centred around a month of activities each November, including Equal Pay Day, the day on which women in Ireland effectively stop earning, relative to men, because of our gender pay gap of just over 14%. I developed the concept for and have managed the WorkEqual campaign since its establishment in 2016. The campaign has led to the established of the Oireachtas All-Party Group on Workplace Gender Equality, for which Alice provides the secretariat.
