Stakeholder forum

The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland's stakeholder engagement forum aims to support and improve two-way communications between the charity regulator and the sector.

The forum meets four times a year and has a membership cap of 30. It is currently chaired by Charlene Brooks, Chief Executive of Parenting NI and Deputy Chair of NICVA’s executive committee, with Ian Simpson, NIPSCBF, in the role of Vice Chair. Under its current terms of reference, the forum membership aims to represent a balanced cross section of the sector in terms of size, income, location and beneficiaries. Members serve a three-year term.
