Teac Tom Christmas Remembrance Candles

This Christmas, Teac Tom invites your company to join an international initiative that brings light, hope, and unity to those touched by suicide.

Our Christmas Remembrance Candle is lit on Christmas Day by people across the world to remember their loved ones lost to suicide. Imagine 1,000 candles glowing together on Christmas Day, each representing both the love for someone lost and the strength of a community united in grief and healing.

We are asking businesses across Ireland to partner with us by purchasing a box of Christmas Remembrance Candles

How your business can use these candles:

  • Gift to staff – show your employees that your company stands with them, values wellbeing, and supports suicide awareness and prevention.

  • Resell in your staff restaurant or tuck shop – employees can buy a candle for Christmas, with proceeds supporting Teac Tom.

  • Corporate gifting – include candles in your staff Christmas hampers or as part of a wellness initiative.

  • Memorial space in your office – light a candle in your reception or staff area during December to remember all those lost and spark important conversations around mental health.

  • CSR impact – demonstrate your commitment to mental health, community support, and corporate social responsibility.

 

Candle Remembrance 2024

In December 2024, Teac Tom’s Remembrance Candles once again lit up homes & communities in memory of loved ones lost to suicide. Each candle represented love, remembrance & hope — and together, they shone brightly across Kilkenny, Laois & across Ireland

Thanks to your support, the campaign raised vital funds for our counselling, 24-hour phone line, and walk-in services, while reminding us that no one has to face grief or struggle alone.

Looking to 2025

Remembrance Candles from Teac Tom is becoming a cherished tradition & we’d love for you, your family, or your workplace to join us in keeping the light burning in 2025. Together, we can bring comfort, connection & hope.

Every candle purchased not only helps fund Teac Tom’s vital work in suicide prevention and mental health support, but it also gives your employees and their families a meaningful way to honour loved ones during one of the most difficult times of the year.

Together, we can ensure that no one feels alone in their grief this Christmas.
