Young Irish family fear they will be on the streets in days

A young dad says his family are facing homlessness after their planned eviction from their home of 11 years on Friday.

Alan Fitzpatrick, 37, his wife Kelly, 30, and their three dependent children Katie, 17, Jack, 10 and Bobby, six, now fear they will have to spend the weekend on the streets - just before the children start back at school on Monday.

Their plight comes as updated homeless figures due out on Friday are likely to be the highest figures on record.
