Housing complex to support adults at risk of homelessness

Cork City Council is developing a €2.1m supported-student accommodation complex in the western suburbs for young adults at risk of homelessness.

The project, the first of its kind in the city, will provide supported housing for up to 39 young adults aged over 18 and who are pursuing third-level education.

The facility is being developed in an existing student accommodation complex off the Curraheen Road in Bishopstown.
