Charity Trustees’ Week
Tonight Wednesday 13 November 7.30pm (and repeated at 6pm Thursday 14 November.)

This annual event, hosted in collaboration with the Charities Regulator, Boardmatch Ireland, Carmichael, The Wheel, Volunteer Ireland, Charities Institute Ireland, and Dóchas, aims to honour the vital contributions of trustees in the governance and leadership of charities across Ireland.

Charity Trustees’ Week serves several important purposes:

Highlighting the importance of good governance of boards, promoting the need for a thorough knowledge of trustees’ roles and responsibilities, education and upskilling of trustees;
Highlighting the need for new trustees to come forward and the means by which new trustees can be connected with charities that need trustees;
Creating a greater understanding and awareness among the public of the role of trustees, and the awareness that trustees are public members.
