✨Meet our volunteers ✨

Aside from our guides, the team at Secret Street Tours are all volunteers. As we’ve made some new additions in the last month, we want to make some introductions 🤗

We’ll start with our wonderful founder, Tom, who brought the idea of Secret Street Tours to Ireland after he went on a homeless walking tour in Vienna in 2018. He believed Secret Street Tours could make a real difference in people’s lives. Tom is also a business analyst at UNICEF, and you may find him working as a digital nomad across the world, enjoying sports and nature in his free time⛰️

Are you aware that according to figures from the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, there are approximately 13,866 individuals in State-funded emergency accommodation in Ireland? This number does not include those experiencing “hidden homelessness”, or sleeping on the streets. Many people avoid emergency accommodation because of issues around safety.

Have you heard the term “hidden homelessness”? It’s when someone who does not have a permanent place to live, resides with family, friends, or stays in temporary accommodation. And in 2023, approximately 42,000 young people in Ireland (aged between 18 and 24) experienced this type of homelessness. This is 42,000 too many.

To learn about the effects of homelessness directly from someone who experienced it, book your tour with one of our Secret Street Tour guides today. https://www.secretstreettours.org/book-a-tour

Beyond teaching the students about some of the city’s landmarks, Noel shared the famous story about how he and his friend escaped to New York as youngsters, as well as how he ended up experiencing homelessness. Luckily, the sun even made an appearance for the afternoon ☀️

Where We Started

After being inspired by the concept of homeless walking tours in other European cities, we decided to bring the idea to Dublin.

Given our homelessness crisis, we feel this concept has the potential to have a real and lasting impact, both for our guides and for those who join our tours.
