“Day in and day out we are seeing the impact that emergency accommodation is having on children in particular.”
A leading homeless charity has launched an urgent appeal to support families waking up in emergency accommodation this Christmas morning.
This year’s appeal will send the message that those children in Depaul’s temporary accommodation services shouldn’t worry, as Santa has them in mind this Christmas, so even if they’re not in their forever home - he will make sure to find them.READ MORE: Social housing budget "wouldn't put a dent" in number of new homes needed
The appeal is encouraging the public and companies to support Depaul’s Christmas campaigns which includes putting a small, personal gift from Santa in the hand of every child, woman and man in Depaul’s homeless services this Christmas morning and also to enable Depaul to provide a little Christmas cheer, including Christmas dinner, for those accessing one of their 42 homeless services over this period.
“They are being uprooted from friends, living in temporary accommodation, and going to bed at night not knowing when they will have a home they can call their own and a permanent roof over their heads.”
