Helpline launched for older people affected by cold snap
Three volunteer groups have teamed up to provide a helpline for older people who are house-bound by the current ice and snow and who need a volunteer to bring them essential supplies.
The three groups - Age Action, the Society of St Vincent de Paul and Muintir na Tire - have come together to provide a network of volunteers in communities across Ireland who can respond to older people who may be facing difficulties.
