• Calls for assistance to SVP are up by 50% this year in some parts of the country

• 1 in 4 of all calls are coming from people who have never contacted SVP before

• SVP are seeing an increase in calls and letters from people who are ‘newly in need’ and note the shame, panic and stress that this new situation is causing these individuals and families

"We are absolutely delighted that Eddie Izzard is using his creative talent in association with Aiken Promotions and Vicar Street to provide support for the work of the Society. The SVP is the largest direct service, non-profit charity in Ireland. We help individuals and families who are struggling to cope, often to ensure that there is light in the home and food on the table. We are there also for people who need help, often financial; who are in despair or who are alone’. Our need for funds this year is absolutely vital and everyone who purchases a ticket will be making a very welcome contribution to our work”.

Mairead Bushnell, National President of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SVP)
