Search Results for 'national housing charity'

Sinn Féin spokesperson on Further and Higher Education, Dep Mairéad Farrell, has said that students and parents seeking accommodation for the coming academic year should first check with the national housing charity, Threshold, which is running its annual Scamwatch campaign.

The current housing situation in Galway, if you look at accommodation search websites and on facebook, is not great. In comparison to Dublin, where rents are dropping, it is becoming more expensive and more difficult to secure accommodation to rent. Those who are the most vulnerable financially can often be the worst hit, and include students and people in receipt of HAP payment.
