- Rory’s Wish to Walk – contributing towards life-changing treatments and therapies for Rory Gallagher.
- Sister Regina’s Housing Initiative – supporting housing projects in Pakistan.
- Formula Trinity – sponsoring Trinity College Dublin students building the J1 race car for the Silverstone competition.
- Foresters FC – sponsoring grassroots football, coached by our Managing Director, Jamie Jeffery.
- Paris2Nice Cycle 2025 – supporting our founder, Colin McGhee, in raising funds for the RNLI Wicklow lifeboats
Construction of a local school for the Kutchi Kohlie people in Sind, southern Pakistan. This initiative supports access to education for a marginalised community, helping to provide children with opportunities that can transform their future
Great teams are built on great talent, both in hedge funds and in our communities.
We’re proud to support causes that inspire, empower, and make a difference. This season, we were proud to support local grassroots football club Foresters FC. The team is especially close to our hearts, as it’s coached by our Managing Director, Jamie Jeffery, who volunteers his time to support and develop young players. We were delighted to see these rising stars step out in their brand-new kits, and we’ll be cheering them on all season.
Paris2Nice 2025: A Ride in Support of RNLI Wicklow Lifeboats
In September, our founder Colin McGhee completed the Paris2Nice Cycle 2025 – a 775km journey across six days. Colin dedicated this challenge to his late brother, David, who tragically drowned at the age of 19 and would have celebrated his 50th birthday this year. Through this effort, more than €42,000 was raised in support of the RNLI Wicklow lifeboats, helping crews who risk their lives at sea every day.
