Snow, snow, snow

 

The Practice PR team has been snowed out of the office since the cold spell hit Ireland. As the thaw, slowly but surely, makes its way into the country, we are hoping to reopen the office in Shillelagh on Thursday 9th December, weather and road conditions permitting! In the meantime, we are still working remotely and you can reach us by email at jillian@practicepr.ie and maria@practicepr.ie, as well as on Jillian's mobile 0872366603.
