In 2025, our community-giving programme continued to support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals that guide our social impact strategy most notably Quality Education, Good Health & Wellbeing and Zero Hunger. With an overall contribution of approximately \u20ac400,000, we strengthened our commitment to improving outcomes for children, young people, and families across the communities where we live and work.<\/p>\n
This year, we deepened our partnerships with organisations working every day to break cycles of childhood poverty and expand access to education, including Apprentis d\u2019Auteuil in France, Children for a Better World in Germany, and BookTrust in the UK whose programmes offer vulnerable children stability, mentoring and essential educational support, alongside initiatives that inspire a love of reading and equip disadvantaged children with crucial early-literacy resources. Together, these organisations are creating meaningful pathways to learning, confidence, and long-term opportunity.<\/p>\n
Recognising the critical need for greater awareness, early intervention, and ongoing support within the construction industry, where mental health challenges remain a significant issue, we renewed our support for organisations like Aware and Movember, that champion mental health.<\/p>\n
We also extended our support for critical therapeutic and wellbeing services through Cancer Support Switzerland and the Irish Cancer Society, helping ensure individuals and families affected by cancer can access counselling, coaching, support groups and restorative activities such as yoga, Pilates and art therapy. These services remain a vital pillar in strengthening resilience and improving quality of life during some of life\u2019s most challenging moments.<\/p>\n
In addition, we reaffirmed our commitment to supporting children\u2019s healthcare in Ireland by sponsoring the Children\u2019s Health Foundation\u2019s annual Clash of the Companies event in 2025. The Foundation plays a vital role in supporting paediatric hospitals and services across Ireland, funding life-saving equipment, family supports, and vital care programmes for children and their families when they need it most.<\/p>\n
In 2025, we advanced our commitment to Zero Hunger by supporting essential food security programmes delivered by Ronda Carita in Italy and Food Bank Spain -organisations that provide nutritious meals, food parcels and community-based assistance to individuals and families facing hardship. Our contributions helped ensure that those most at risk of food insecurity could access reliable, dignified support during times of need.<\/p>\n
Our giving programme continues to reflect what matters most to us as a company: supporting pathways to opportunity, promoting dignity, and partnering with organisations that deliver genuine, measurable impact.<\/p>\n
Mercury CEO, Eoin Vaughan remarked, \u201cOur purpose is brought to life through the people and organisations we are privileged to support. By focusing on education, wellbeing and community resilience, we are investing not just in programmes, but in futures. I\u2019m incredibly proud of what we have achieved together this year -and even more inspired by what lies ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
We extend our sincere thanks to our dedicated charity partners for their expertise, compassion, guidance and commitment. Their on-the-ground impact transforms our support into meaningful change. As we look ahead, we remain steadfast in our belief that responsible business and community wellbeing go hand in hand, and we will continue to champion initiatives that broaden opportunity and strengthen the foundations of a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
