As part of our Shine a Light on homelessness with Focus Ireland we are asking why some people are still sleeping rough when the government say there is enough beds for everyone. Henry McKean reports.

Shine a light on homelessness with Focus Ireland

Give one night to shine a light on homelessness on Friday 16th October

Shine A Light Night is Focus Ireland’s flagship campaign which takes place this year on Friday 16th October and it is in partnership with Bord Gais Energy . We ask our supporters to sleep out for one night to shine a light on homelessness and raise vital funds for our work supporting people experiencing homelessness. The aim of the campaign is to generate vital income for our services as well as stand in solidarity with people experiencing homelessness for one night.
