Good luck to 21 of #ourbrood along with all of the other participants, volunteers and event organisers for Monday's St Patrick's Day Spar craic 10k! It's our 4th year sponsoring this event which is always great #quack!

We were delighted to welcome the Lord Mayor Micky Murray and Lisa Comerton from Belfast Chamber to our award-winning office today. It was a fantastic opportunity to share how Aflac NI is making an impact locally while supporting our US parent organisation. A huge thank you to the Lord Mayor for taking the time to visit, meet #ourbrood, and hear more about our journey! #LordMayor #Belfast #AflacNI #OurBrood

Did you spot our Web & Mobile Solutions Architect, Robert Conn, and Integration Platform Engineering Manager, Fiachra McVicker, at the Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent re:Cap party keynote today in W5? For those that didn’t make it, Robert and Fiachra talked about how Aflac are building core integration services on AWS to enable real-time data updates, supporting our transition from mainframe architectures to modern, real-time customer experiences. They also talked through how we used AWS Experience-Based Acceleration to develop a strong business case and proof of concept for this critical work. Great job and thanks to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Northern Ireland team Fiona Simpson, Peter Trimble and Suzanne Leslie for their ongoing support!

We’re thrilled to announce that we've won the Community (CSR) Award at last night’s prestigious Business Eye Awards! This award recognizes organizations that make meaningful contributions to their communities—and for us, giving back is a core part of who we are. Our partnership with The Children's Cancer Unit Charity is at the heart of this commitment. Every year, up to 70 children in Northern Ireland are diagnosed with cancer or blood disorders, and this incredible charity is the only one in the region offering specialized treatment for them. Since 2020, we’ve proudly supported this cause, raising essential funds and providing My Special Aflac Duck™—a comforting, robotic companion—to help young patients on their journey. This award also reflects our parent company’s legacy, as Aflac has donated over $184 million toward supporting children with cancer and blood disorders since 1995. Thank you to our dedicated team for making this impact possible through fundraising, volunteering and support. Here’s to continuing our important work together! #AIBBE24 #AflacNI #aflac #CCUC #partnership #community
