The Society of St Vincent de Paul received a record 191,000 calls for help last year — and the charity is now seeking volunteers to support its vital work.
SVP received just over 191,000 calls for help last year, a 12 per cent increase compared to 2020, from people across the country. It is now seeking volunteers as it prepares for a full return to home visits.
