Emergency Hubs for those still without power after Storm Eowyn

1402

There are still many people in Galway who are without electricity a week after Storm Éowyn, which has left them without heat, the ability to make food, and many other facilities.

Community Hubs are open around the county as the organisations have stepped up to offer places for toilets and showers, wife, changing facilities, remote working and more.

Galway County Council has compiled a list of these hubs and their opening hours for people who need essential services.

These Emergency Response Hubs assist people with basic needs such as water, hot food, phone charging, broadband access and shower & toilet facilities.

They are continuing to be set up in partnership with local community groups and businesses, and facilities are currently available at the following locations
