Remembering Ailbhe Murphy

Create is deeply saddened by the passing of former Director Dr Ailbhe Murphy.

Ailbhe led the organisation from 2015 to 2022, during that time helming the creation of our 2020 – 2025 Strategy, Connect Create Change. She truly practiced the art of collaboration in her work and made a deep and lasting impact on those who had the privilege of working with her.

The Create team and board send condolences and thoughts to Ailbhe’s partner Ciaran and son Luke, as well as her extended family, friends, and all those affected by this profound loss.

As an organisation, we are committed to honouring Ailbhe’s legacy, and will offer an opportunity for colleagues across the sector who valued their relationships with Ailbhe to express their own gratitude and sadness, in due course.
