People We Have Helped
Read the stories of those who have been effected by homelessness. With the help and support of Midlands Simon Community, each of them are on the pathway out of homelessness and will continue to be supported by our staff and volunteers for as long as they need us.
Unfortunately homelessness is not just an urban phenomenon but a rural reality, as it affects those in the Midlands Counties of Laois, Longford, Offaly and Westmeath. Although it may not be evident on the streets of your local town, people still have no place to call home and are sleeping in wheelie bins, cars and abandoned buildings. That is until they are referred to Midlands Simon Community. Read the stories of those who have received and continue to receive support from the staff and volunteers of Midlands Simon Community.
