Hi guys, my name is susie. As you may no I help run a unit in waterford called waterford helping the homeless in railway square. We are open 365 days a year providing hot food, drinks, clothes tents , sleeping bags, toiletries, and everything else that a homeless person needs. Apart from that we offer a warm , comfortable, safe space that the most vulnerable of people can come and be seen. We have built friendships with people who have fallen on hard times, people who suffer with mental health and others that are in addiction and need someone to help them get there lives back. Our unit runs solely on donations from the public. As we head into winter we need all the help we can get in order to sustain our much needed service . A place that broken people meet and get the help that they long for , it's not just about the food we serve but its about sitting with these people and making them see that there is hope. It could be any of us in this situation with the way cost of living has impacted many families. With your help our friends will have a place to sit in from the wet and wind , the ice and cold and can be guaranteed of a hot meal and a listening ear in a very busy world were sometimes they feel forgotten or overlooked. We are like a big family in our little unit and work tirelessly in order to make sure our friends feel like they belong in the world. Please help us help them, as you may remember our service users tents were cut up by people who dosnt understand what these guys already go through, we need to buy new tents on a regular basis and the funds raised from this will help us do that. Thanks for reading guys
