The festive season is upon us and with it, the end of what has been a glittering year for the MediaConsult team and our friends.
We enjoyed a highly successful night at the PRII Communications Impact Awards 2025 in September. Our work with WEEE Ireland@ took the top spot in the Most Impactful Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) Communication campaign and the team were highly commended in two other categories for campaigns with Debra Ireland - The Butterfly Skin Charity and Carlow County Council.
In June, we were shortlisted in three categories in the PRCA Spotlight Awards 2025 for our work with Carlow County Council on the innovative Your Carlow initiative.
The Debra campaign, Emma’s Run To 40, was named the Fundraising Campaign of the Year at the Charities Institute Ireland Awards in October. The team at MediaConsult are thrilled for our client - and honoured to have been involved in such a memorable and impactful campaign which raised €1m and will ease so much suffering.
Our clients, John West Foods and Bewley's Coffee | B Corp, took top honours in the All-Ireland Marketing Awards in May. John West Ireland won the Sports Sponsorship Award for their superb work with John West Féile, while Bewley's took the Sustainability Award after a year that saw them launch the world's first truly sustainable coffee. We are so proud to work alongside great teams in both businesses.
Last month, our sister agency, Ad Vantage Media, was also awarded Best Performing Small Business of the Year at the County Kildare Chamber of Commerce Business Awards 2025 - a huge feat by a superlative team.
We’re looking forward to discovering what 2026 will bring, but first -
Nollaig shona agus athbhliain faoi mhaise daoibh.
