WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO

In 2009 Helen Healy Organisation went through a rebranding phase with a new name of HHO Eventsto reflect a business no longer centred on the founder, but on a professional and experienced event management team.

We get to work with some amazingly inspirational people who inspire, drive and motivate us. These include musicians, indigenous elders, writers, artists, singers, dancers, entrepeneurs, dreamers, visionaries, community minded people, bloody minded people and downright big hearted people.

We feel priviliged to work with these people to help realise their dreams, to put a structure around their vision and turn it into a reality - into a sucessful event.

HHO is a very busy office with happy, hardworking staff who enjoy a diverse range of projects and clients.
