A trusted design partnership built over time
Pobal supports social inclusion and local development across Ireland, making sure that resources reach the people and communities who need them most, especially in areas facing poverty, exclusion, or inequality. What began as a single project has grown into a decade long collaboration focused on designing accessible, human-centred public services that support families, communities, and inclusion across the country.
Designing for impact across Irish life
Pobal delivers programmes that touch nearly every aspect of life in Ireland, from early years support and community resilience to social inclusion and survivor advocacy. We helped modernise critical services like the National Childcare Scheme and Better Start, replacing outdated systems with user-first, accessible digital platforms. We embedded design thinking, prototyping, and plain language into Pobal’s workflow, building internal capability alongside every service improvement.
Long-term change through design leadership
Today, Pobal’s platforms are more resilient, accessible, and future-ready than ever. Our ongoing collaboration represents a shared commitment to public impact through human-centred design built on trust, sustained by capability, and shaped by care.



Centred on people, designed with empathy
Each project focused on the real people behind the policy: parents applying for childcare support, survivors navigating advocacy systems, and professionals managing complex programmes. We delivered tools that are scalable, inclusive, and rooted in care.
