Pleased to be in Cork today for @Pobal’s 30th anniversary - a significant milestone.

It was lovely to see some familiar faces again!

We were delighted to host an event for our retired members of staff yesterday. It was great to get together for a catch up.

We were also treated to a special performance by the Probation Service choir 🎶

Great to see the results of Ireland's 1st data collection exercise of #SocEnts highlighting just how much the sector contributes to society through GDP as well as the provision of jobs. We have our baseline. Let's grow from here
