This year is a special one for all at Peter Mark as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Peter and Mark Keaveney opening the doors of their first salon on Dublin's Grafton Street! Since then, the team has grown to over 1,700 people working across 74 salons around the country.

"We have welcomed hundreds of thousands of clients through our doors and have trained thousands of Irish hairdressers, many of whom are still with us today, and some of whom have taken their talents across the globe. With your help we have donated hundreds of thousands of euro to organisations around Ireland which support many, many people from all walks of life - something we are very proud of".

To celebrate - we are delighted to announce that we have teamed up with two wonderful charities; Make-A-Wish® Ireland and the Make-A-Wish Foundation® UK to ‘Support 50 Wishes’.

Make-A-Wish is a registered charity that grants wishes to children between the ages of 3 and 18 with life-threatening medical conditions. These wishes provide a positive, often once in a lifetime, experience for the child and their family.

All 74 Peter Mark salons throughout Ireland will be getting involved! From September 18th – October 2nd, you’ll find all manner of things happening in your nearest salon. From fancy dress to blow-dry Sunday’s, cake sales and cycle-a-thons, all our staff will be trying to raise as much as possible for this great cause.

To say thanks to you – there’s a €10 gift card for every client who avails of hairdressing services during this special two weeks. The card is valid from Monday – Wednesday from October 3rd – November 2nd.
