Dublin mum with two kids facing eviction this May bank holiday says she has 'no choice' but to overhold

A Dublin mum facing eviction with her two children from their home has said that may have to "overhold" or stay in the property after the eviction notice expires because they can't find new accommodation.

The woman, who previously spoke to Dublin Live on the condition of anonymity, said that her family has lived in a rented home in north Dublin for five years and that they have been told to vacate their home on Monday, 1 May.

The woman was contacted by her landlord's son on 10 August last year after her former landlady passed away and described her shock after she was told that her family now has to move out. In recent weeks, the single mum has been trying to get Dublin City Council to buy the property she is living in because she is a HAP tenant.
