HOW SOME LIVE IN PROSPEROUS GALWAY

Some of the photographs that shocked people at the launch of Social Service Month last weekend. These pictures are just of one couple living in Galway city who really have to struggle through their daily lives. These people did not mind our photographer taking pictures-- they are not looking for handouts or charity. They have great dignity and are to be respected; but clearly they must be helped. The toilet and washing facilities are all outside-- their house is cold and damp. Social Service Month is everybody's chance to contribute to the city's social services which exist to help people like these . . .
