WICKLOW
Ali Coghlan (29), from Wicklow, started her online party supply site www.harryali.com, named after her toddler Harry, after she was made redundant from her job in television production earlier this year. She says: "I really do feel my redundancy was meant to be.
"I'd always wanted to work for myself and when I was left out of work in March, I figured 'well, this is the time to do it!'
"The idea came from an experience last year when I'd planned a party for my son Harry (2).
"I wanted to do party bags for everyone but it took ages running round all the shops getting stuff to put in them. Moms and dads who are working full time just don't have the time to do that, so I set up a company that delivers the whole party kit complete to their front door.”
