We’re delighted to share the news that Chronic Pain Ireland has been shortlisted for the 2024 Carmichael Good Governance Awards. This recognition is a huge honour for our team, volunteers, and every member who supports our work.

What the Good Governance Awards Represent
The Carmichael Good Governance Awards highlight the importance of good governance in Irish non-profits, seeking to;
- Acknowledge, encourage and promote good governance practice in the area of annual reports and others areas of good governance practice.
- Support and encourage the non profit sector to use their annual reports and financial statements to showcase their embracement of and adherence to good governance.
- Provide practical examples to other organisations as to what an excellent or very good director’s report and financial statements look like.
Adhering to good governance is more than just an annual report and underpinning policies; it is a framework that ensures organisations are managed in a way that’s accountable, transparent, and fully focused on their mission. Good governance means that every decision Chronic Pain Ireland makes, every euro we spend, and every step we take keeps the best interests of our members front and centre.

For Chronic Pain Ireland, it’s a reminder of the responsibility we have to represent the chronic pain community with transparency, fairness, and respect.
