At HUGG, trust is at the heart of everything we do. Every person who attends a support group, every volunteer who gives their time, and every donor who chooses to support our work places their trust in us. We take that responsibility seriously. That’s why we are proud to be a member of Charities Institute Ireland (CII), the representative body for Ireland’s leading charities and non-profit organisations.
Why does membership matter?
Being a member of Charities Institute Ireland means being part of a community committed to high standards, good governance, transparency and continuous improvement.
It provides HUGG with access to sector expertise, training, networking opportunities and best practice guidance that helps us strengthen the way we work and the support we provide.
Most importantly, it helps us ensure that we continue to deliver the highest quality support to people bereaved by suicide.
A commitment to learning and improving
The needs of those affected by suicide loss are constantly evolving. As an organisation, we believe it is important to keep learning, listening and improving.
Through our membership of Charities Institute Ireland, we can connect with other organisations across Ireland, share knowledge, learn from best practice and stay informed about developments that help us better serve our community.
This strengthens our ability to provide safe, compassionate and effective support for those bereaved by suicide.
What this means for our supporters
For our donors, volunteers and supporters, our membership reflects HUGG’s commitment to accountability, transparency and excellence.
It demonstrates that we are dedicated to operating responsibly, using resources effectively and continually striving to improve the services we provide.
When you support HUGG, you are helping us create meaningful change for people navigating the devastating impact of suicide bereavement.
