Dromad Hire Recently Supported the Dundalk Chamber Pick & Pace School Mentorship Programme.
Dromad Hire, in collaboration with Dundalk Chamber and Staffline, provided 120 branded hi-viz vests for the Pick and Pace Campaign. This initiative encourages secondary school students to participate in weekly litter picking, promoting environmental awareness and helping maintain the school surroundings.
On Tuesday 22nd October, the initiative launched with students in O’Fiaich College and Colaiste Ris, Dromad Hire’s Elaine Rice represented the award-winning company on the day presenting the sponsored hi-viz vests to the schools involved. The De La Salle Secondary school joined the programme shortly after the launch, with many more schools in the area singing up to get their pupils involved.
According to Marcos Simpson, Dromad Hire’s Finance Director “We are honoured to partner with the Dundalk Chamber ‘Pick & Pace’ initiative, where schools commit to regular litter picks to promote an eco-friendly Dundalk. Supporting local initiatives is integral to our business, fostering environmental education, outdoor activities, and school pride among the youth. Special thanks to Jennifer Grey of Staffline for her leadership in this program.”
