Figures from the Department of the Environment show 13 adults were homeless here in February, while 36 children were in emergency accomodation across the region at the end of that month.

912 families throughout Ireland without a home in the last week of the month, 16 of those were in the MidWest, and all bar three of these were single parent families.
But Manager of MidWest Simon, Jackie Bonfield says these statistics fail to take a number of important factors into account.
