Kate O’Connor Makes Irish Athletics History! 🥈

What an extraordinary achievement for Kate O’Connor, who has claimed the silver medal in the heptathlon at the World Athletics Championships. Despite sustaining a knee injury in the long jump, she went on to deliver five personal bests across seven events to secure her place on the podium.

At just 24, Kate has written her name into the history books as the first Irish woman ever to medal in a multi-discipline event at a major championships, and only the sixth Irish athlete to medal at the Worlds — the first in 12 years.

When Walls chose to support Kate three years ago, we could not have dreamed of what she has now achieved. To see her stand on the world stage, competing with such resilience, courage, and consistency, is simply beyond belief. All of us at Walls are so proud of this remarkable Dundalk woman, who has exceeded every expectation.

A special word too for her father and coach, Michael, whose guidance and support have been vital to this journey.

Walls will continue to stand proudly beside Kate as she now looks ahead to her Olympic ambitions and the road to Los Angeles 2028.

Congratulations, Kate — a performance that has made history for Irish athletics and inspired a nation. 🇮🇪✨

We’re proud to mark the successful conclusion of our Emerging Leaders Programme, developed in collaboration with UCD Professional Academy.

This programme was created to support and develop the future leaders of our organisation. Over five days, the participants explored the core foundations of effective leadership through five key modules, each designed to build confidence, competence, and connection in their roles.

From learning how to lead with self-awareness and emotional intelligence, to embracing inclusion, coaching, empowerment, and resilience, every session brought new insights and practical tools that can be applied immediately in the workplace.

Thank you to everyone who took part with such openness and energy. Your commitment to developing your leadership skills will have a lasting impact, not just on your own career, but on the teams and colleagues around you.

Here’s to the next chapter, and to leading with purpose and authenticity!

In June, we were proud to collaborate with the Irish Centre for Diversity to further strengthen our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (EDI&B).

Over the course of the month, we hosted a series of impactful webinars. We began with an introductory session on best practices for fostering inclusive workplaces, followed by focused discussions on Allyship, Inclusive Language, and Active Bystanding—each designed to cultivate a culture of respect, inclusion, and belonging.

We’re especially grateful to Rob Fitzpatrick (he/him) from the Irish Centre for Diversity for his insightful and empathetic facilitation. Rob shared practical, actionable strategies to help ensure that everyone feels safe, valued, and empowered to bring their authentic selves to work.

For three years, watching over Dublin's skyline, our College Square tower crane helped us reach new heights! Standing 103m tall, it has completed its purpose, and in a two-day operation, we recently deconstructed this fabulous lifting equipment without incident, prioritising safety every step of the way.

Another significant milestone for a vibrant mixed-use development set to transform the heart of the city.

A huge thanks to Marlet Property Group for their continuous trust in us.

Building a Safer Workplace Together 🏗️

No one person sets out to cause an accident or endanger their health or the health of others at work, but even the most diligent employees can sometimes engage in behaviours that increase risk.
That's why Behavioural Based Safety (BBS) Training is so important. BBS helps us understand why unsafe behaviours occur and, more importantly, what we can do to encourage actions that support a safer and healthier workplace where everyone looks out for each other and shares their concerns in a clear and open way. To reinforce this ethos, our safety commitment boards are prominently displayed on all our projects.
Furthermore, our Health & Safety Manager, Alan Worrall, has led the roll out of our BBS programme across all projects, together with our training partner, project teams and supply chain colleagues.
Their tremendous efforts have led to an enhancement of our safety culture, and a noticeable decline in negative behaviours and unplanned events.
We're excited to build on this success as we kick off Phase 2 of our programme later this year!
