Regional Forum

Family Resource Centres are structured into nine distinct regions, each with an FRC Regional Forum.

  • Cork
  • Eastern
  • Kerry
  • Mid-West
  • Midlands
  • North-East
  • North-West
  • South-East
  • Western
Regional forums provide a platform for FRC staff and members of the Voluntary Board of Directors to come together regularly to:
  • Network: Build relationships and share knowledge, experiences and best practice principles with peers from other FRCs within their region.
  • Discuss Common Issues: Address shared challenges and opportunities, fostering collaborative problem-solving and support.
  • Organise Training: Plan and conduct professional development and training sessions to enhance the skills and knowledge of FRC staff and volunteers.
  • Plan Collaborative Projects: Develop and coordinate joint initiatives and programs that benefit the communities served by the FRCs in the region.
Regional forums play a crucial role in ensuring that Family Resource Centres (FRCs) gain representation on various regional bodies. Additionally, the regions appoint directors to the board of the FRC National Forum, acting as the primary conduit for communication between local FRCs and the Family Resource Centre National Forum Board. This structure helps to ensure that local insights and concerns are effectively communicated and addressed at the national level, fostering a cohesive and unified approach to meet the needs and challenges faced by FRCs across Ireland.
