A man is lucky to be alive after being found unconscious on a busy city centre by members of the Feed Our Homeless team.

The stricken individual was found on Henry Street in the early hours of Monday morning in an unresponsive state.

The man, believed to be homeless, was quickly seen to by members who swiftly provided first aid.

A spokesperson for FOH said: "Last night while FOH outreach team were carrying out there usual nightly route in the city centre. Our team came across a homeless guy lying on the ground unconscious on Henry Street.

"Due to the quick thinking and training from our volunteers they certainly did save this young man's life.

"Training our volunteers within FOH certainly does make a difference as our volunteers are prepared to deal with any situation that may occur whilst carrying out FOH front line service calmly and processionally.

"Well done to the FOH volunteers late night. Amazing team work. The management here at FOH would also like to thank the ambulance crew who arrived very quick to the scene to help the young homeless man recover.

"Amazing people doing amazing things on the streets of Dublin."
