Danny O'Sullivan to be honoured by Daniel O'Connell school

We’re incredibly proud to share that our Founder, Danny O’Sullivan, has been announced as the recipient of the 2026 Daniel O’Connell Award.

The award recognises Danny’s remarkable contribution over more than five decades, from leaving Glenbeigh for London in 1971 to building the Danny Sullivan Group into a business employing more than 2,000 people across construction, civil engineering and infrastructure.

Despite making a life in the UK, Danny has always remained deeply connected to his roots in South Kerry, continuing to support his home community and helping fellow Irish emigrants along the way.

He will receive the award at this year’s Daniel O’Connell Summer School in Cahersiveen and Derrynane on 28th and 29th August.

It’s a fantastic recognition of Danny’s legacy, his contribution to the industry and, perhaps most importantly, his continued commitment to the people and community he has always called home.
