Cork city centre quayside branded ‘TentsVille’ as more homeless pitch tents

Part of a Cork city centre quayside has been branded ‘TentsVille’ after up to a dozen homeless people pitched their tents in the area.

Cork Simon and Cork City Council both said their homeless outreach workers have engaged, and continue to try to engage, with the people living in the various tents which have been pitched on the wharf, inside the railing along St Patrick’s Quay, on the northern channel of the river Lee.
