Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This is a worthy cause!

Research I conducted recently showed the desperate poor health homeless people have. Homelessness is an unhealthy state !

Of the 600 people we interviewed almost all had either a diagnosed mental or physical health problem.

The most depressing thing for me was that 1 in 3 had at some point attempted suicide, 

Its well known that those who need most care are the least likely to get it. This is where the mobile health unit comes in !  GP trainee volunteers man the unit  with Dublin Simon staff and drive around the city at night to give the care and attention to those who otherwise would not get it. 

I really appreciate your support

Fiona
