Corlann

Summary

The Brothers of Charity came to Ireland in 1885 and provided services to individuals with intellectual disabilities with compassion, dignity, and commitment throughout their years of service. In 2026, we proudly launched our new identity—Corlann—a name that captures both our heritage and our vision for the future.

Our name, Corlann, draws inspiration from cor, the Latin word for heart, and lann, the Irish word for place. Together, they express a powerful idea: that heart is at the centre of everything we do, and that our purpose is to create a place of belonging for every person we support. Corlann symbolises our determination to shape a vibrant, progressive future for our services, and to advocate tirelessly so that the people we support can shape their own. Our name embodies our ethos, our culture, and the foundation on which we continue to grow.
