“I’m looking forward to Christmas for the first time in a long time. I feel supported by Peter McVerry Trust, there’s no hassle with the management and the key worker. This is the first step on the ladder for me.”

Christy, who was homeless for over 10 years, recently moved into his own apartment in Cork city with the support of Peter McVerry Trust. It’s the first time in a long time that he has a place to call home at Christmas.
