2019 was a year when the numbers of people in emergency accommodation escalated to unprecedented heights. It was a year when the impact of the homeless crisis led to an increase in crisis mental health interventions and when the demand for homeless healthcare grew significantly but health funding remained static.

Despite the challenges and barriers that lay before us, we made some great strides in 2019. Together with the support of our donors, funders and volunteers, we supported 7,455 people and families across our services in Dublin, Wicklow, Kildare, Meath, Louth, Cavan and Monaghan.
