Our experience in practice

The Lighthouse Charity Annual Summer Lunch 2026

In June 2026, Pennypop supported The Lighthouse Charity Ireland Summer Lunch, held in the historic Round Room at the Mansion House, Dublin.

The event brought together professionals from across the construction industry to support The Lighthouse Charity and its vital work providing emotional, physical and financial wellbeing support to construction workers and their families.

Working closely with the Lighthouse Charity Ireland team, Pennypop provided event coordination, communications, attendee management, sponsor support and promotional activity in the lead-up to the event. Our team also provided on-the-day event support and content creation to help capture key moments and maximise post-event engagement.

Sponsors are a pivotal part of this fundraising event, so content included sponsor led engagement to ensure each supporter was highlighted and their participation was acknowledged.

The Summer Lunch attracted a full house of industry leaders, professionals and supporters, creating a memorable afternoon of networking, entertainment and fundraising. Through the generosity of attendees, sponsors and supporters, the event successfully raised awareness and funds for the charity’s ongoing work across Ireland.

There were many digital elements included in the event on the day, with QR codes included on menus giving easy access to donation links and the event programme, making for a more consciously sustainable event.
