30 people slept rough during the freezing conditions in Dublin last night.
The Peter McVerry Trust says that they were offered help but refused beds.
Homeless charities are reporting a big increase in demand for their services during the cold snap.
Peter McVerry reps say 106 beds were allocated at a sports centre in Dublin's South Inner City, an increase on 81 on the night before.
