"Anger and anxiety" about ending the eviction ban will fuel the first in a series of national housing crisis protests to be held in Cork on Saturday.

Housing campaigners and people who are set to lose their rental homes will address the gathering outside the vacant buildings at 7-9 Parnell Place next to Cork city’s bus station.
