Louise Cantillon is an accomplished TV and radio presenter whose career is on an impressive upward trajectory. Currently, she hosts the lunchtime slot on Today FM, where her engaging personality and passion for the Irish language shine through. Louise's media career began during her college years with Spin SW, and since then, she has expanded her talents across both radio and television. Notably, she was a presenter for the Junior Eurovision on TG4 in 2022 where she presented alongside Kanturk's own Darragh O'Caoimh.

A fluent Gaeilgeoir, Louise takes immense pride in promoting the Irish language through her work. Before stepping into the media world, she was a secondary school geography and Irish teacher, but her love for broadcasting led her to pursue a career on air.

With her style, charisma, and extensive experience, Louise was the perfect choice to become an O'Callaghan Toyota Brand Ambassador at the start of 2024. Her ability to connect with people and her passion for sharing stories aligns perfectly with Toyota’s values of trust, innovation, and community.

Eddie Dunbar is a professional road racing cyclist, currently competing for Team Jayco AlUla, and one of Ireland’s most exciting cycling talents. A local man, hailing from Banteer, County Cork, Eddie has built a reputation as a gifted climber and a fearless competitor, known for his attacking style and ability to shine in stage races. His breakthrough year came in 2022, with standout victories including overall wins at the Tour de Hongrie and the Coppi e Bartali. In 2023, he cemented his place among the elite cyclists by securing a top-10 overall finish at the Giro d’Italia, showcasing his exceptional climbing and endurance. Most recently in September 2024 he claimed the best win of his professional career at Vuelta a Espana, winning two stages.

Eddie's passion for cycling started early, joining the Kanturk Cycling Club as an underage rider, and he quickly became a dominant force in junior competitions. He remains the only rider in the 43- year history of the Junior Tour of Ireland to win the race twice. His international career began to take shape in 2014 when he won the Junior Tour of Wales by nearly five minutes and placed ninth in the European U23 Championship time trial at just 18 years old. Known for his tenacity and grit, a defining moment came in 2015 during the La Côte Picarde Nations Cup, where he attacked early, spending 100 kilometers out front and claiming both the mountains and intermediate sprints classifications, while also earning the title of most aggressive competitor.

Eddie turned professional in 2018, and progressed to teams such as Axeon Hagens Berman, Team Sky/ Ineos Grenadiers, and now Jayco-AlUla.

An O'Callaghan Toyota Brand Ambassador since 2017, Eddie represents the brand’s values of performance and resilience. His dedication to his sport and his commitment to pushing the limits on every ride is admirable making him a fantastic role model and ambassador.
