'I always wonder when I will be thrown out again' - renters share horror stories and urge others to know their rights
Briefly

Threshold launched its Own Your Rights campaign to empower renters across Ireland. Aimed at vulnerable tenants, the initiative connects them with knowledgeable advisors to educate on housing rights.
The challenges faced by renters include eviction risks and navigating legal complexities. Having a clear understanding of one's rights can significantly alter outcomes in housing stability.
Testimonials from individuals in dire situations highlight the critical role of advocacy and support services in not just preventing homelessness but also in raising awareness about tenant rights.
Each participant noted that before accessing Threshold’s resources, they were unaware of their rights, emphasizing how vital such initiatives are in safeguarding tenants against exploitative practices.
