Women sit-in to protest over housing

Two women are conducting a sit-in at a town council offices over claims that the local authority has not done enough to get them and their children proper housing, even though it has a number of vacant properties on its books.

The woman have been joined on the sit-in at Bray Town Council offices by Sinn Féin Wicklow county councillor John Brady.

“The situation these women and their children find themselves in is completely unacceptable when there are so many vacant properties lying boarded up around town,” said Mr Brady.
