Cork Simon To Prepare Cold Weather Strategy
Cork Simon says they are preparing their Cold Weather Strategy in an effort to prevent further deaths among the homeless community.
The homeless charity say they will be working with the city council in order to ensure anyone who is homeless will have a bed available to them this winter.
It comes as another homeless man was found dead in a tent in Bray this week.
That brings the number of homeless people who have died over the past four weeks to five, including Cork woman Jennifer Dennehy who died in a tent at Gilabbey Park.
Speaking to RedFM News Simon's Dermot Kavanagh says it is vital that no one is left outside over the winter months:
