The Irish Red Cross and Age Action have launched a COVID-19 Hardship fund to respond to the immediate needs of older people in vulnerable situations across Ireland experiencing additional hardship as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak.
This might be useful information for everyone to be aware of in your day-to-day dealings with some older members of society who may be experiencing particular worry in this regard. Older people, or those assisting them, can request an application form by:
