EAPN Ireland has launched its research report entitled “More Than just a Temporary Crisis: The growing need for support with basic necessities and the impact on Low-Income Households and the Community and Voluntary Sector”. This report investigates the growing reliance on community organisations and charities for support with basic necessities (e.g., food, heating, hygiene products etc.), and the effects that this has on individuals, households, and on the Community and Voluntary sector itself.

This research was funded by IHREC (Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission) and commissioned by EAPN Ireland (European Anti-Poverty Network Ireland).

The Report calls for a coordinated approach from the Government that is underpinned by a commitment to tackling income inadequacy and investing in public services.
