Grateful, happy, content. A room here at Simon changed his life. And that's thanks to our generous and caring community of Room Sponsors.. When you sponsor a room you’re providing someone with the chance to rebuild their life. https://t.co/8PhjG2fzZX

Another record monthly high for the number of people stuck in emergency accommodation here in Cork. It takes it's toll. Too long and far too many - a significant 27% increase in twelve months to 641 men and women. People deserve better. #CorkSimon #Cork #EndHomelessness

892 men, women and children stuck in emergency accommodation here in Cork and Kerry last month. It's a significant increase of 25% in 12 months. 892 people counting on others. Nowhere to call home. Independence denied. People deserve better. #CorkSimon #Cork #Kerry

Peter’s life changed in that instant when he became ill. Fear. Uncertainty. Anxiety. Made all the worse for Peter when he ended-up sleeping rough. Would you be willing to sponsor a room for as little as €5 per month? It’s life-changing. https://t.co/8PhjG2f2ap

"The whole lot of my life is on hold. Sometimes I feel like giving up. I just want a home like, you know." No sense of peace, quiet or comfort. A room to shake off the world can make all the difference. Will you sponsor a room for just €5 a month? https://t.co/DefoK1OG5g

Our Annual Fundraising Ball simply couldn’t happen without the support of Cork’s business community. The wind in our sails. We’re thrilled @EZLivingInt have come on board as a main sponsor this year. Director, Gavin believes the homeless crisis is “particularly concerning”

We saw the number of men and women stuck in emergency accommodation here in Cork exceed 600 people for the first time in January. It increased again last month - 633 men and women depending on emergency shelter for a roof over their head. #CorkSimon

It’s not a record to be proud of. It’s not who we are. 680 lives on hold – who knows for how long. 680 men and women pushed into homelessness, pushed to the margins, pushed to the brink. Yet another record monthly high.

“It’s a shame that we don’t have a society where having a home is considered a fundamental human right, as yet.” Sponsoring a room makes a huge difference to the men and women experiencing homelessness in Cork. It's the beginning of a second chance. https://t.co/p8xQOVHp5o

Having a warm, safe place to stay was transformative for Marie. And for so many others. Could you sponsor a room for the price of a cup of coffee a month and help someone like Marie? https://t.co/EEO1v0Y2WY

Homelessness takes a serious toll on people, impacting both their physical and mental health. And often they lose the important connections they rely on. Will you sponsor a room for just €5 a month and help somebody to reconnect with themselves and the people that matter most?
