Public benefits
The primary direct benefit that flows from this purpose is an increased understanding and application of the principles of sustainable development so as to improve the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of the communities of district councils. Through the adoption of good sustainability practices in council functions and services, social
and economic benefits are delivered for residents without causing excessive environmental impacts. These benefits may be evidenced through regular internal and external qualitative assessment; through annual reporting of our charitable activities and audited financial performance in the annual reports of Sustainable NI, as well as regular project evaluations, reports for funders and user surveys. The charity’s beneficiaries are the residents of the eleven district councils in Northern Ireland. There is no harm arising from the purpose that has been set out above. No individual within the organisation nor any other organisation gains a private benefit from the purpose of the company and its outworkings.
