About this Event

We're going around the country with our Host Roadshow to celebrate the local community response, recognise existing hosts, recruit new ones and make sure everyone feels confident and supported in their hosting journey.

In collaboration with Donegal County Council, we're bringing together anyone who is currently hosting or considering signing up to host.

Join us for an interactive evening aimed at empowering hosts and their Ukrainian guests with the support, information and local resources they need for a successful and sustainable hosting experience.

It will be a chance to meet others that are currently hosting in your community and share experiences. During the event, you'll get a chance to:

Hear what we've learned after 2 years of hosting
Get support for you or your guest(s) at any stage of the hosting journey - from moving in to moving on!
If you're considering becoming a host, find out how it all works and get your questions answered
Discover how you can get involved in the community response to supporting refugees

arose in direct response to the Ukraine crisis, to empower and support individuals and communities in Ireland to host displaced Ukrainians in their homes, safely and sustainably. We’ve facilitated matches for over 2,000 Ukrainians in more than 1,000 homes, created a vibrant, trusted support network for hosts and present a strong voice in advocacy for hosts at all levels. We are hosts, helping hosts.
