Delegates at this year’s Master Series Trauma and Mental Health Conference in Oxford were treated to two wonderful performances by Celtic Grace and Paddy Creedon.

‘Celtic Kindness’, their musical story of the life of iconic and blind harpist Turlough O’Carolan in 17th century Ireland, created a truly captivating and uplifting experience in the world-famous Sheldonian theatre. Storytelling accompanied by such talented performances on the harp and flute.

The following day, their outdoor performance of music and poetry at the University’s Examination Schools evoked a mesmerising sense of calm in the late summer sunshine. A wonderful opportunity to relax and recharge whilst taking a break during the conference. In addition you created such a unique and moving tribute to the late Sinéad O’Connor, which the audience were so touched by.

I highly recommend both these performances – the artists have the attentiveness and flexibility to tailor their performances exactly to the requirements of your conference or event.

My heartfelt gratitude for all the support Paddy provided during our study trip to Dublin. His professionalism and enthusiasm were truly remarkable, and they played a significant role in making our trip a resounding success.
 
The feedback from everyone who participated in the study trip has been overwhelmingly positive, and it’s clear that Paddy’s guidance and assistance were instrumental in creating such a wonderful experience. We all thoroughly enjoyed the knowledge exchange with the Irish healthcare professionals, and it was a fantastic opportunity to learn and grow together.

We had no other choice but to move online with our activities but we developed a model that delivered high quality content and networking to our participants.
This process of adaptation has relied on significant investment and employee engagement within the Alumni Team. More importantly, it has benefited from the unrelenting support of people like Paddy Creedon who have devoted time, knowledge and expertise to help adapt, maintain and in some cases improve the Alumni activities both in Belgium and internationally and that allow for co-creation, learning and exchange even during these very challenging times.

To express our gratitude for Paddy’s contribution to the Vlerick Alumni, as a member of our Alumni Advisory Board and to recognise his contribution we present him with this certificate

I can’t speak highly enough about Paddy. He has been a complete inspiration to me all my working life. His ability to cut through to the core of a challenge in a respectful and insightful way is simply extraordinary. His authentic self is always at the centre of what he does and his ability to not only bring people with him but to develop them along the journey is well known. To watch him in action is a masterclass in Leadership at its very best. I have no doubt what he has to offer the business community is not only unique but so needed.

Having worked with Paddy Creedon in a number of capacities now, I can honestly say that he is an absolute pleasure to work with. His processes make the experience seamless and hassle free. He is organised to the extreme and combines professionalism with a warmth that makes you happy to always hear from him. He is a true gentleman and someone I hope I have the good fortune to work with on other projects in the future.

“Paddy Creedon is a person of deep empathy and humanity for his fellow peers in recovery. His awareness of the losses incurred due to addictive behaviours is based on his experience of a life in recovery where for many years he has benefitted from the practice and philosophy of a spiritually driven recovery programme.
He carries the positive messages of recovery forward in words and in practice to those who are seeking a different way of being.
Paddy also understands and engages with family members in their fundamental loss of relationship with their addicted loved one which is like a healing balm of hope for so many coming from a person in recovery.
To the treatment community Paddy is an important advocate and recovery coach and his efforts to bring forward the voices of those in recovery is tireless and commendable using creative and imaginative ways. As an addiction counsellor and psychotherapist, I deeply appreciate Paddy’s contribution to this field.”

Paddy and I have a common interest and its not just about the trials and tribulations of the GAA in our native counties. We also work together, as Recovery Advocates, supporting people in addiction and their loved ones to find their own recovery journey. Through our work and our personal journeys, we have seen the need for intervention and the need to support families in need of help.

I have known Paddy for some time now as a professional and as a friend, I have found him to be very compassionate and humble in the work he has done in the field of addiction and mental health. Paddy is one that stands by his word and is a genuine authentic caring man.

Paddy was a breath of fresh air as a General Manager and was certainly someone I looked to for inspiration. A great people person, with dynamism to match. I would recommend Paddy for any senior Executive or management role.
