Supporting The Prince's Trust in Northern Ireland
Our work in Northern Ireland is made possible by the support of generous individuals and organisations from both the public and private sectors.
Local support plays a crucial role in helping young people in Northern Ireland transform their lives. The skills, qualifications and experience they gain through The Prince’s Trust are for life, so your support is a real investment on building a better future at individual and community levels.
The work of The Prince’s Trust in Northern Ireland is supported by a local Advisory Committee, which develops strategic relationships that further our aims and mission, with an emphasis on income generation.
As of January 2020, The Prince’s Trust Northern Ireland Advisory Committee members include:
- The Earl of Caledon KCVO (Chairman)
- Dr Trefor Campbell CBE
- Ms Ellvena Graham OBE
- Ms Mary Madden CBE
- Mrs Allyson McKimm
- Mr Mukesh Sharma MBE DL
The Northern Ireland Advisory Committee carries out an important function, but it has no executive or non-executive responsibility for the management, operations or administration of The Trust. The governance of The Prince’s Trust is the responsibility of The Prince's Trust Council, which is its board of Trustees and chaired by John Booth who was appointed by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales on 1st August 2018.
