A young mother trying to rent a new home in Carlow says she’s never felt pressure like this in her life as she tries to keep up a brave face for her kids.

Theresa McLean’s husband works full-time in Carlow and they are looking to move because the house they’re living in now in Kildare town is being sold.

They only have another month before they’ll be evicted but they haven’t been able to find somewhere to live and are struggling to even find options to view due to the competition in the market and the lack of available housing.

Theresa says her desperately wants to shield her three-year-old daughter and one-year-old baby from how she’s feeling about the risk of becoming homeless.

She outlined the plight on KCLR Live earlier – listen back here:
