We believe that everyone should have fair access to
safe, secure and affordable housing.

Ann wants to give everyone the home that Cork has given her.

778 men, women and children were depending on emergency accommodation in Cork and Kerry in June 2024.

Our Emergency Shelter is overflowing. People are staying longer because they have no other options.

Rents in Cork continue to rise while supply remains at an all-time low; Rent Supplement & Housing Assistance Payments fall well-short of current market rents.
