A family of four who were given their notice to quit from their rental property in Wicklow town are facing homelessness, after fruitless efforts for more than a year to secure another rental property.
Una McGrath and her partner Pat Yates, a local postman, returned the keys to the property on March 5, and the family has been split-up ever since, with Una staying with a friend in Kilmacanogue, while their son Sean is staying with a relative in Newtownmountkennedy, and their daughter Caoimhe is staying with another relative in Wicklow town.
