Governance

Here at AADI, we are dedicated to upholding the highest standards of transparency, accountability, and ethical practice. Strong governance is at the core of everything we do, ensuring that we operate with integrity and effectiveness.

AADI’s Commitment to Transparency and Best Practice

We are proud to announce that Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland (AADI) has once again been awarded the prestigious ‘Triple Lock’ status by the Charities Institute Ireland (CII) for 2024. This renewal reflects our unwavering dedication to maintaining the highest standards in governance, fundraising, and transparency.

To achieve this Triple Lock status, we adhere to three core principles:

  1. Fundraising Accountability: We follow the Guidelines for Charitable Organisations on Fundraising from the Public, ensuring our fundraising practices are ethical and transparent.
  2. Financial Transparency: Our annual financial statements are prepared in compliance with the Charity SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice under FRS102) accounting standards. You can explore our financial reports below.
  3. Good Governance: We have fully implemented the Charities Governance Code, ensuring that we operate with strong governance policies in place.
