A Dublin gallery has been praised after it offered its premises for women within the city centre who ever feel unsafe.
The Royal Hibernian Academy took to Twitter to pay tribute to Ashling Murphy, who was brutally murdered last week, saying the gallery is "always a safe place".
They said: "RIP Aisling Murphy.
"We would also like to remind you that the RHA is always a safe place. If you are made to feel uncomfortable, in the city centre, you can come to the RHA and phone a relative, friend, Gardai/charge phone with no questions asked.
“Ar dheis De go raibh a hanam.”
Ashlings' death shocked the country after she was viciously attacked while out jogging along the canal in Tullamore, Co. Offaly.
Her death has led people to come together and demand change in how violence towards women is seen within society.
The gallery's gesture was welcomed by many as people praised the organisation for its willingness to help.
One person said: "This brought tears to my eyes Thank you all the wonderful staff at RHA."
Another said: "This is a great initiative."
While others encouraged other businesses to follow suit, saying: "How decent! Def a lead others could follow?"
Ashling was laid to rest on Tuesday morning following an emotional ceremony at Church St Brigid, Mount Bolous, Co Offaly.
Hundreds of mourners gathered outside the church to pay their respects to the talented musician, teacher and camogie player.
Just hours later, gardai arrested an Eastern European man over the murder of Ashling.
The man had been in St James Hospital since Thursday after he admitted himself for treatment for what were believed to be knife wounds.
He can now be held for up to 24 hours before he is either charged or released.
