Mothers living together in a Dublin city apartment block have joined together to highlight their horrific living conditions.
Rats, open drug dealing, regular hospital trips, mental health problems and mould are just some of the issues that have been keeping the women awake at night since they first moved into Castle Court apartments.
A large dead rat with a long tail has been left to rot just metres from where the children play. Tablet packets and needles have previously been left discarded around the block and outside the Peter McVerry Trust's building.
