Begin Together
Begin Together
Belonging to a vibrant and supportive community can be very rewarding. But great communities and thriving towns don’t just happen. They need tireless commitment and active support, now more than ever.
Fortunately, in every town and village there are people of vision and inspiration, caring for those around them – and working hard to make things better for everyone.
Begin Together is a key part of Bank of Ireland’s support for building an inclusive and resilient society which will thrive in the challenges of today and into the future.
Tomorrow will be better if we begin together.
One of the many future-facing projects we’ve supported is Liquid Therapy. It was founded in 2011 to provide one to one support for young people who wanted to experience surfing but were unable to participate in mainstream opportunities.
