Organised by the political party Aontú, the vigil was attended by family members of some of those who have died.
A VIGIL WAS held outside Leinster House at 6pm this evening to remember the 402 homeless people who have died in Dublin since 2018.
Flynn said he was disappointed to see the small turn out at the vigil and the lack of government ministers in attendance. Speaking to The Journal after the vigil, Tóibín said Aontú has been looking at the issue of homelessness for a number of years now and that the number of homeless deaths has been “creeping up year-on-year”.“It’s very clear what the causes are, the causes are obviously, the lack of homes for people, but also the lack of investment for mental health services, for drug addiction services, and for all the wraparound services that people who are vulnerable need,” Tóibín said.
