Ireland's youth tackling Dublin's homeless problem - Brandon O'Connor - Average JOE
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 мар 2024
- Brandon O'Connor set up the Dublin Homeless Awarenes (DHA) when he was just 16 years old.
Now 21, the DHA is a volunteer response team that carry out welfare checks on rough sleepers at night.
This could mean checking in on their mental wellbeing, helping them get into emergency accommodation, or in many cases - protecting them from being attacked.
This is part of our mini doc series, where we celebrate the Average JOE's amongst us doing extraordinary things!

I’m actually bursting with pride for this young lad!! Award him up
A ray of light and hope in these dark days
Wow, what a guy, his grandparents did an amazing job
What amazing young men. The streets of Dublin can be mean and hostile at times 🔔
He's 21! & His team dont look much older either. What a wonderful group. They should be acknowledged for what they do & funding that goes to bogus NGO's should go to these lads.
Dublin City’s unsung heroes 👏🏻
This made me cry what an earth angel this young man is
Its fantastic, but also it exposes what one person can do on his own compared to what the entire government should be doing but refuse to do, how does their vacuous excuses for doing nothing about this crisis stand up to this lad’s efforts, modern day real life super heroes well done lads
What an amazing young man. The world needs more men like Brandon! ❤
This young lad deserves a huge reward for doing this 🎉
We should also as a state decriminalise drug possession of small amounts and change how these laws around "drug driving" where a person is convicted two weeks after for failing a test and then summarily they lose their license, car, livelihood, job etc which evidently *Leads* to Homelessness.
Such an inspiring story. Well done
Great job team 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
❤ This makes me so proud ❤❤❤❤❤
Fair play to you Brandon.
Fair play to them they are heroes 👏 🙌 👍 👌 ❤️

Excellent work lads. Brandon's is an incredible story.
Brilliant fair play to him 😎
Well done to you and your group. An inspiration to both young and old. Originally from Dublin I am very impressed by all your hard work. ❤️👍
Homeless shelters are a racket. Homeless shelters are run for profit. Homeless shelters are filthy. Homeless shelters provide lucrative careers for middle-class Irish who have messianic narcissistic complexes. Homeless shelters are part of the homeless problem.
Totally agree homeless shelters are middle class scams.
Do you think increasing the population by 3% last year had anything to do with it
Well done young man
Amazing young man, will be put down in Irish history…keep doing what you do mate need more people like ye
Legend...

According to our government, we can provide housing for the entire world, but not our own.

IFTI 🙏🏻🇮🇪🙏🏻
Why don't you hear about the 1.000 homeless refugees on the news?? They're expecting housing, what about the national homeles? Are they expecting housing?
End the migrant crisis
Zero gov money for that either
Why do you Irish not demand more of your government, why is every service out there a volunteer organization or charity? It is very commendable what this person is doing. But for a country that has one of the highest GDP in the EU your government clearly has failed looking after their own country and its citizens.
Rough sleeper seems a bit rough to call them? Why the snake jumper? Men and women sleeping on hard times maybe?
