A young family who have been made homeless managed to secure emergency accommodation at the 11th hour which means they won’t be on the streets for the weekend.
Alan Fitzpatrick, 37, his wife Kelly, 30, their two boys Jack, 10, and six year old Bobby and Alan’s daughter from a previous relationship, Kasey, 17, had to hand back the keys to the landlord of their HAP rented house in Dublin’s Clondalkin.
The landlord had given them eight months notice before the planned eviction which happened through no fault of the family.
