The Chairperson and Trustees of Sligo Rape Crisis Centre are deeply saddened to announce the death of SRCC CEO, David Madden.
David was truly committed to his work in providing a safe, trauma-informed and compassionate space for survivors of sexual violence on their journey towards healing. He led SRCC through times of transition and new developments since joining the organisation in 2019, including the introduction of SRCC counselling services in Cavan, moving services online during the COVID-19 pandemic and moving to new premises in Sligo and Carrick-on-Shannon. David’s work as a psychotherapist, supervisor, poetry therapy practitioner and trainer has created a lasting impact, and his loss will be deeply felt by many.
We offer our sincere condolences to David’s wife Jane, his daughters Lucia and Riona, his extended family and wide circle of friends and colleagues. Our thoughts are with them at this difficult time.
Parvez Butt, Chairperson SRCC Board of Trustees
