South Dublin County Partnership has recently achieved the Trusted Charity Mark award recognising the excellent work it does as a third sector organisation in Ireland.

Trusted Charity is part of the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) and is the only UK quality standard designed to help third sector organisations operate more effectively and efficiently. South Dublin County Partnership was assessed against the 11 standards of effective practice in Trusted Charity, including in governance, leadership and management, managing staff and volunteers and managing money, and proved to meet all standards. 

[Nick Snow, Trusted Charity Programme Manager, NCVO] said “We are delighted for the trustees, staff and volunteers of South Dublin County Partnership that they have achieved the Trusted Charity Mark. We know that organisations using the Trusted Charity standard benefit by having better governance, better systems and procedures and better quality of services for their users and it is great that the community of Trusted Charity users in Ireland is growing”.
