Supporting individual men and women who are homeless

Teach Corrib Day Centre is a drop-in centre for individual men and women who are homeless or rough sleeping in Galway City.

Our team provides client-centred advice, information, and support tailored to each individual’s situation and needs. They will work with you to assess your situation, identify all options available, and explore them.

The centre is also a great social space where you can meet other people and grab a coffee, tea, soup, or sandwich. Some of our clients just come in to use the laundry and shower facilities.

Who is the service for?

Individual men and women, 18 years or over, who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless.

See our Family Services for information about available services and support for families.
