Last night

John Gallen was taking part in the Winter Rough Sleeper Count 2014 and numbering the homeless around the environs of government buildings.

UPDATE:

Due to sensitivities around the Winter 2014 Rough Sleeper Count it has been requested that I request the post ‘While You Were Sleeping’ be removed. At the same time, I’d encourage anyone with an interest in helping out the Dublin Region Homeless Executive to join them in volunteering in next year’s count. Many thanks to the overwhelmingly positive comments to the piece and the brilliant work on the night by Dublin Region Homeless Executive. Until next year, yours sincerely, John Gallen :)
