Galway Bay fm newsroom - The Dáil has heard that users of the Loughrea Day Centre service are effectively being "thrown out on the street" ahead of a protest today.

Currently, the centre operates just one day a week from the purpose-built Seven Springs Day Centre at St. Brendan's Community Nursing Unit.

A further three days are offered at the Loughrea Hotel - but service users and campaigners claim it's an unacceptable arrangement.

It comes as a protest march is taking place in Loughrea later this morning, demanding that a full, appropriate service be restored.

Deputy Sean Canney has now raised the matter in the Dáil.
