“I was at a conference in Google yesterday and I spotted your wonderful elephant. A very powerful element in the room that started an incredible conversation between me and a fellow colleague. Thank you!”

“Thanks again for everything you have done for us in An Post. Our Ellie really will elevate this crucial topic amongst our 10,000 employees.”

“We’ve been asking the question for some time: Where do we start supporting mental health and challenging stigma in the workplace? Well an elephant in the room sculpture in your foyer certainly isn’t a bad starting place. This is a wonderfully creative way of showing our values, signposting the supports we provide and giving our people that extra help and push so they know someone cares.”

“I can’t speak highly enough about the impact our art sculpture, ‘Ellie’, has had since we unveiled it in Waterford. This is the best and most effective initiative I have ever seen for challenging stigma and encouraging open conversation about mental health in the workplace”.

“We ran a staff competition to ‘Name the Elephant’ and were inundated with thought provoking and meaningful suggestions. After much consideration, our elephant was named ROSIE, standing for ‘Reach Out, Support Is Everywhere’. On 10th October, we unveiled ROSIE to mark World Mental Health Day, and it stands proudly outside our Dublin office, acting as a symbol of hope and a great conversation starter among colleagues and clients.”

“We have long believed that a supportive working environment can be very beneficial to those experiencing mental well-being issues and were gratified to find that the message of the Elephant in the Room campaign reflects that belief. It has been a pleasure to deal with Dave and Brent, we look forward to the continuing success of the campaign and to see how it grows and develops.”

“We are delighted to be part of the Elephant in the Room movement. Its creative approach to mental health is powerful, encouraging open discussions. It sends a clear message to our employees, clients, and the wider contracting community that speaking up when struggling is not only accepted it is actively supported, and that help is always within reach.”
