Blarney Community Day this Saturday!
CATU Cork is coming to Blarney. If you live in Blarney, you might have seen it already Tenant power doesn't build itself. It gets built the old-fashioned way: people meeting people, getting to know each other, and deciding together that things need to change.
Come along for an afternoon of crafts, live music, and a Know Your Housing Rights workshop. Find out what protections you have as a tenant and meet the people around you who are in the same boat.
Free to attend. All welcome.
Saturday | 12:00 - 3:00pm | Blarney Community Hall, T23 R6DGF

In November we held our first community day in the Barrack st area. Everyone brought some food that reminded them of home, and got to meet some of their neighbours. Thanks to 107 Barrack Street Café for hosting this day!
We will soon organise the next one.

March Activities @ CATU Cork. Link in Bio if needed for activities.
Rents in Ireland have been rising at a brutal pace. In Cork, it's been even worse.
Cork is consistently among the most expensive rental markets in the country. The pace of increases here has outstripped wages, pushed families out of the city, and left tenants with less and less power to push back. That's not accidental. It's the result of policy choices that have consistently favoured landlords over renters.
From March 1st, the rules around Rent Pressure Zones are changing again. You deserve to know exactly what those changes mean for your tenancy and where the union stands.
CATU is hosting an online information session to break it all down: what's being changed, who it affects, and what we can do collectively about it.
Rent Pressure Zones: What's Changing and What It Means
Tuesday, February 24th at 19:00 — Online
Open to members and non-members. If you know a renter who needs to hear this, send them the link (link is in bio).
