It has been a privilege to have participated in Coras2013 and an honour to have won, particularly with the standard of the competition. Of course the money will be a huge help, but Shawn’s mentorship will be invaluable in taking Fields of Fun to the next level.

Congratulations on a great event last night…. In all the evening felt like a triumph.

It was both inspiring and fun, and superbly organised. I have no doubt that all five of the finalists will have taken a lot from the process which will be of real benefit to them in the future.

I do hope that Coras continues on and grows with the years. It was an empowering event in so many ways, and I have gained a confidence I never knew I had.
Debi Richens of Fitelle, Coras2013 Finalist
It was a great evening last week, congratulations for creating such lovely evening and for initiating this opportunity. I hope that the community appreciate the difference that this could make. II look forward to hearing the progress of the winning company.
Amanda Richards, Chief Executive EBP West Berkshire
Shawn I am so proud of what you have achieved. When you first mentioned your idea to me, I thought you might struggle to get support and find like minded people, who would be as generous and as giving as you were prepared to be. Well done on finding them and congratulations on such a showcase event. You totally epitomize what it means to give something back. This country needs more real people like you who care and show one person can make a difference.
Mary Flavelle, Business Menor
Shawn, last night was a blast – you have missed your key in life – showbiz! .. I suggest you get cracking on the next Coras event!
Claudio Bacci AML
