Raise the Roof coalition is organising a National Rally on Sat 18th May 2019 at 1.00pm in Parnell Square, Dublin 1.

Our demands are as follows:

• A major Local Authority led investment in public housing


• The building of affordable homes


• The cessation of evictions into homelessness


• The creation of a legal right to housing


• Security of Tenure and Rent Control for Renters

These measures are being vehemently opposed by the current government with the tacit support of some Independents and Fianna Fáil.

There is also an online petition. Details at:https://www.cwu.ie/2019/05/09/raise-the-roof-campaign-online-petition/

The Raise the Roof coalition consists of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, all the main homeless charities, the Union of Students in Ireland and a broad range of political activists
