Feedback and Complaints
Insight Inishowen is committed to ensuring that all our communications and dealings with the general public and our supporters are of the highest possible standard. We listen and respond to the views of the general public and our supporters so that we can continue to improve.
Insight Inishowen welcomes both positive and negative feedback. Therefore we aim to ensure that:
1) It is as easy as possible to make a complaint.
2) We treat as a complaint any clear expression of dissatisfaction with our operations, which calls for a response. When we receive such a complaint:

Insight Inishowen is run entirely by volunteers and we do not have any paid staff. This means our volunteers are not usually available during working hours. However, we receive administrative support from The Exchange office team. The Exchange office is open from Monday to Friday from 9.30am to 1.30pm. The office staff can take messages for Insight Inishowen.
What happens next?
If you complain in person or over the phone, we will try to resolve the issue there and then. Similarly, if you complain by email or in writing we will always acknowledge your complaint within seven days, and do everything we can to resolve it within twenty-one days. If this is not possible, we will explain why and provide a new deadline.
What if the complaint is not resolved?
If you are not happy with our response, you may get in touch again by writing to the Insight Inishowen committee c/o the Secretary (using The Exchange address above). The committee will then consider the complaint and provide a response within two weeks.
NB: This complaints procedure does not apply to Insight Inishowen’s volunteers who have separate grievance and disciplinary procedures.
