Galway Camogie has debuted new team jerseys on Saturday, 18 February to announce their partnership with Jigsaw. The Galway Camogie senior team will proudly wear the Jigsaw logo, in donated jersey space from sponsor Westerwood Global, for the duration of the 2023 National Camogie League.

Speaking on behalf of Galway Camogie, Brian Griffin, their Chairperson said

“Galway Camogie are delighted to have chosen Jigsaw as its Charity Partner for the 2023 National Camogie League, and look forward to the opportunity to help generate greater awareness of the services provided by Jigsaw, in supporting young people's mental health, at both club and county leve.l”

“We are genuinely honoured and delighted to have been chosen by Galway Camogie as their charity partner for the duration of the 2023 National Camogie League. This is an incredible opportunity for us to work with all the amazing people involved in Camogie in Galway,” commented Justin McDermott, Jigsaw’s Fundraising Manager. “Our mission in Jigsaw is to advance and support the mental health and wellbeing of young people across Ireland. But we cannot do this on our own. That is why this partnership is so important to us, as it is only working together with partners such as Galway Camogie and their sponsor Westerwood Global, that we can create the services, and supportive communities, that our young people deserve.”

Galway Camogie and Jigsaw’s partnership will also extend to include the delivery of Jigsaw’s Mental Health Awareness workshop to camogie clubs throughout the county. A joint fundraising initiative is also in plan, details and information of which will be available soon.

David Byrne, Westerwood Global’s Chief People Officer said

“It is a privilege to support Jigsaw and the amazing work they do. We hope that highlighting, openly talking, and providing visibility, in any small part by Westerwood Global, will help encourage us as a society to break the barriers associated with mental health. With ‘People’ being one of our core values, we are especially proud to support an organisation that can in turn have a positive impact on the wellbeing of our own team as well as their loved ones.”
