10,305
atThis afternoon.
The Department of Housing has revealed that a total of 10,305 people accessed emergency accommodation in the month of March.
There are now 3,821 children homeless in Ireland with a total of 6,484 adults experiencing homelessness also.
Depaul CEO Kerry Anthony said:
“Recently we have seen in some of our emergency accommodations that over 50% of those new to homeless were between the ages of 18-34. It is important to point out that this is a sample representing Depaul’s emergency services however, for some young adults in our society that means starting your adult life off as homeless. We believe nobody should be faced with that prospect when they have so much to give and are at such a young age.”

Nestlé Cereals Ireland and ISPCC Childline celebrated the success of the Cheerios Childline 16 year partnership, which in its final year brings total funds raised to a phenomenal €7.724 million for ISPCC Childline.
With thanks to Cheerios support, Childline, Ireland’s only 24-hour listening service for children and young people, answered its 7 millionth call in 2018.
The partnership commenced in 2003 with the sponsorship of the Cheerios Childline Concerts, which welcomed national and international superstars to Dublin over 11 years and saw a huge €5.34 million raised for Childline.
In fairness.
Um.
