Last month, 35 employees from our Fab Facilities Equipment Operations team visited the Saint John of God facility in Celbridge to repaint and rejuvenate the gymnasium.
Saint John of God Community Services provides a range of services for people with intellectual disabilities.
Over the course of two days, the gym space was revamped from a previously multi‑coloured scheme to a dusty blue finish. In addition to painting the facility, Intel sponsored a full floor polish for the gymnasium to give the flooring a new lease of life and ensure it is fit for the many purposes it serves.
