FURIOUS residents in one of Ireland’s worst housing estates are suffering a living nightmare as they battle serious safety concerns in homes plagued with mould and damp, raging: “It’s more like a prison than a home.”
The devastated community, based in Sallynoggin, in south Dublin, took the streets to demand action from the council against their horror reality, with the mould in some of the flats and homes “so bad you can taste it”.
Families are experiencing mental and physical health issues from living in maisonette flats and houses riddled with wet walls, black mould and collapsing ceilings.
And the gaffs are also at risk of rodents, residents fear, as they called on council chiefs to “condemn the maisonettes”.
Suffering locals mounted a major protest outside Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council offices, calling on them to fix the issues for the sake of young children and elderly family members enduring the difficult conditions.
Mum-of-two Katie Byrne last month told how her children are “constantly sick” due to the extreme damp and persistent mould in their home.
And mum-of-three Kim Joyce revealed her son Calvin, 10, was diagnosed with pneumonia when he was just nine-years-old, as a result of their living conditions.
And Kim lifted the lid on how her autistic daughter Romi, six, who is non-verbal, has been robbed of a safe and healthy environment to grow up in.
The 31-year-old, also mum to four-year-old Alan, pays €70 a month for a three-bedroom house – but has been forced to avoid using the largest bedroom in her home because “the mould is so bad you can taste it”.
Kim told the Irish Sun: “Two years ago I got given one of the maisonettes in Sallynoggin, I was given this on medical priority for my daughter, she’s autistic non-verbal.
“Basically the whole place is mouldy. I’m paying rent for a three-bedroom house but I can’t use one room.
“We need a bigger home. We need no mould. We’re all in the house together and I can’t use one room, because the mould is so bad you can taste it.”
And Kim said she has agonising fears for her kids, especially Romi who doesn’t fully understand how dangerous the mould is.
She said: “I don’t understand how they even put us in here. I obviously have to clean the mould, but because Romi has autism she doesn’t understand, so she actually goes over sniffing and licking the mould on the wall.
“My son actually got pneumonia, and doctors said they’d never seen a case of it in a nine-year-old. And he wasn’t anywhere else, only in the house, so it’s definitely the house that gave it to him.
“I spoke to the council and they told me that I need one more vent in the house, I need to open my windows, and maybe they might give me one more vent.”
Kim also explained how that the situation had taken a toll on her family’s mental and physical health, leading to her children missing school.
And she said the situation is particularly difficult for little Romi.
She said: “It’s absolutely disgraceful. I’ve three children. Romi needs to be in a house where there’s not someone on top of you. The only way she can communicate is by screaming.
“It’s been absolutely detrimental. Since we moved in we’ve been sick.
“I’ve had bronchitis four or five times in two years, my son has suffered the most because he contracted pneumonia.
“And the doctor said it has to be down to the house because he’s never seen a nine-year-old child contract pneumonia and he doesn’t have any health problems.
“You walk into this room and you can taste the mould, never mind smell it. The room I can’t use is the biggest bedroom.
“We’re always sick, my sons have missed so many days of school.
“They’re putting families in here just to get them off the lists, but we’re left here and we’re all getting illnesses.”
“All I’m asking for is a safe house with no mould, but I don’t know where to go from here.”
Fellow resident Katie Byrne lives in a damp-infested maisonette flat with her children Callie May, 10, five-year-old Caine and her partner Brian.
The 32-year-old pays €100 per week and compared living in the property to residing in “a prison”.
She explained: “Recently my son has been discharged out of Tallaght Hospital with a fungal infection in his eye.
“In A&E we showed them the pictures of the damp and the mould in the room that my son sleeps in and they have reason to believe that’s why his eye was so badly infected.
“My daughter has had 16 perforated eardrums in the last two years due to the damp and the mould.
“We have a moisture reader at home and we’ve high readings of moisture in the rooms. She’s actually in Crumlin Hospital on Monday to see about her ears.
“She’s had three operations during the Easter break, I had pneumonia last winter, my partner has had pneumonia, it’s just non-stop getting sick all the time, and it’s all down to the flats.”
WHEN it manifests, damp is dangerous for our health.
It can cause respiratory illnesses, allergies and asthma as the fungus spores are released in their thousands into the atmosphere.
Common ailments are sneezing, a runny nose, red eyes and skin rashes, but moulds can also affect the immune system and trigger more serious problems.
At first, mould toxins may not cause any harm at low levels. But if they are consistently in the air, it starts to cause side effects.
People who live in homes with mould are more likely to:
Babies and young children are at particular risk of health effects from mould.
Those with respiratory conditions, such as asthma and certain allergies, tend to be worse affected, as are people with skin conditions, such as atopic eczema, and those with weakened immune systems.
The concerned mum is convinced that the numerous health issues her family has faced are due to their living situation.
She continued: “It’s the mould and damp – it’s in the furniture, it’s in the beds, it’s in the mattresses, it’s in everything; the clothes, the shoes. I’m constantly throwing out things all the time.
“It’s having a huge impact on my partner’s and my own mental health at the moment because we’re doing everything as parents to get everything in order and make sure our kids are safe, but we can’t protect them from it.
“They can’t have their little friends in to play, we can’t have sleepovers, we can’t have birthday parties, we can’t have people in the house.
“It’s taking over our lives now. All these reports have been sent to Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown and they’ve been filed.”
“We need a bigger home. We need no mould. We’re all in the house together and I can’t use one room, because the mould is so bad you can taste it.”
Kim Joyce
The HSE’s multi-disciplinary team working with Katie’s son wrote to the council, citing mould and damp, anti-social behaviour, fire safety concerns and rats as difficulties facing the family in their current home.
Katie and Kim said they have been left with no other option but to take to the streets in protest of the grim conditions.
Katie begged: “Just condemn the maisonettes, they’re too horrible to stay in. And the houses as well, there’s no insulation, they’re freezing cold, I’m spending the guts of €60 to €100 in gas a week in the winter time.
“I’d actually class it as a prison sentence, because you go in and it’s not a family home; it’s nothing, it’s just where we lay our heads at night.
“We’ve actually seen ivy growing in my children’s room.”
Katie had been working as a betting assistant and studying full-time to be a social worker but was forced to give up both to care for her family.
She explained: “I had to give up my job because I was missing too much work due to my children being too sick.
“I had to give up full-time education last year for the same thing.
“We can’t sit down at a kitchen table, they have to do their homework on the floor. In the winter I bring them down to the library to do their homework.
“The blockage in the piping system from the toilet is coming up out of the ground, we’ve a rat infestation in the back garden, the council just don’t care.”
Sisters Sophie and Jade Tallant told how growing up in the conditions is “embarrassing” – and said another sibling left the country due to the situation.
The 33-year-old and 26-year-old sister have lived in a house in the Pearse area of Sallynoggin for 31 years with their mother Clodagh.
Childcare worker Sophie said: “When we first moved in the council built us an extension.
“We’ve had years of mould, damp, ceilings in the bathroom crumbling. One time part of the corner of the bathroom ceiling fell out and they came to fix it but it fell out again and we realised that they had stuffed it with newspaper and just plastered over it.
“Our front door, there are holes around where they haven’t fitted the door properly, you can nearly put your hand through to the garden.
“We were fighting for years and years to get the damp sorted, there was water running down the walls, you’d wake up in the morning and there’d be water on the window ledge.
“We’d ring them about it – all the damp and mould – and every time we were told, open your windows and get dehumidifiers.
“But it’s gone past that, the windows are open day and night, we fought for years and years but nothing.
“The extension was so bad that my sister had to move out because she couldn’t sleep in the bedroom.
“She had to move out for months at a time in winter because you could see your breath even when the heating was on.”
The sisters told how their health has also been impacted and they’re constantly forced to throw our household items destroyed by damp.
Sophie added: “We were constantly getting chest infections, the flu, at one stage my bedroom was so bad that a pillow fell down by the wall and when I took it up the next morning it was soaking.
“It’s been years and years of having to throw stuff out, having to get new furniture because the council’s quick fix is don’t put things against the wall and get a dehumidifier.
“But our flats are so small I don’t know where they think we’re supposed to put our furniture.
“They constantly pass blame onto the tenants. Everything you tell them it’s just we don’t fix that. They tell my mam to look in the handbook, the handbook hasn’t changed in 31 years, so it’s old fashioned.”
Jade added: “The only right word for it is embarrassing, you cant even bring work friends over for a barbecue.
“It’s only a dream to own your own home now because they’re too expensive and you can’t get your hands on one.
“You’re embarrassed to bring your friends home in case they walk into the wrong room, you’re afraid to let a colleague drop you home because of the ridiculous condition you live in, it’s embarrassing and it’s cruel.
“You’re not only battling trying to live in a mould-infested area, you’re putting all your earnings into trying to make your house a home. I paint my room and you’re buying paint every two months to cover up the mould.”
“In A&E we showed them the pictures of the damp and the mould in the room that my son sleeps in and they have reason to believe that’s why his eye was so badly infected.”
Katie Byrne
And Sophie said the time for action is now as the living conditions are negatively impacting so many people.
She fumed: “It’s a health hazard not a home.
“Our grandmother has been on full-time oxygen for the last ten years. We can’t allow her to come to the house for long periods of time because it’s not good for her lungs, so she’s missing out.
“They can’t ignore us any longer, there’s too many kids getting sick, there’s too many elderly people sick, we’ve been pawned off for too long and it’s time for them to do something.”
Community Action Tenants Union committee member Fiadh Tubridy attended the protest to show solidarity with the residents.
She said: “At a national level our demands include calling for much more investment in maintaining existing stock as well as massive expansion in building new public housing to solve the housing crisis.
“People are calling for more investment in maintenance, specifically access to funding for retrofitting, replacing windows and doors. Residents in Sallynoggin are just saying they should be making progress with upgrading our homes which haven’t been upgraded for years.
“We will be continuing this campaign and trying to put pressure on the council until the issues are addressed.
“Most immediately we’re calling for a series of very clear demands, including housing tenants who are in the maisonettes in appropriate alternative housing.
“And in the houses, that there’s appropriate investment in windows, doors, and replacements.
“Most immediately we’re calling for a meeting with senior management of the council – between us as the union, the residents, and senior management – so residents can speak on the issues they’re facing.”
A Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council spokesperson said: “Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council is currently progressing a redevelopment plan for selected properties within Pearse Estate.
“We have engaged with tenants on an individual basis where issues have arisen in their properties and inspections on these units have been carried out.
“Tenants have been identified for transfer to alternative accommodation, some of these transfers have already taken place and further transfers are in progress.
“We are continuing working with the tenants in this area and facilitating transfers where possible.”

Country star Pat Green has confirmed his younger brother was among the victims who died trying to save his children during the holiday weekend disaster.
The couple’s deaths were confirmed by Green’s wife, Kori, in an emotional Instagram post on Monday.
“Pat’s little brother John, his wife Julia, and two of their children were swept away in the Kerrville flood,” she wrote.
“We are heartbroken and anxiously waiting for all of them to be found. Thank you for your prayers.”
Pat Green, 53, also spoke out, calling it a “deeply personal loss” in a statement posted on social media.
“During the devastating flooding that hit Central Texas, my family — like so many others — suffered a heartbreaking and deeply personal loss,” he said.
What we know so far…
“We are grieving alongside countless Texans whose lives have been upended by this tragedy.
“Right now, we kindly ask for privacy and space as we mourn, support each other, and begin to process what comes next for our family.”
Green also postponed his scheduled Sunday show, citing the “unforeseen weather and tragedy.”
“Our prayers go out to all the folks affected by the floods in the Texas Hill Country,” he said.
While Kori’s post said they were still hoping for the missing to be located, local outlets reported both John and Julia’s bodies had been recovered.
The tragedy unfolded in Kerrville, Texas, as torrential rains battered the Blue Oak RV Park on the July 4 weekend.
Green’s brother, John Burgess, 39, was with his wife, Julia, and their two sons, James, 1, and Jack, 5, when fast-moving floodwaters tore through the site.
The family had been staying in an RV parked near the Guadalupe River when water levels surged by about 10 feet overnight.
John and Julia were killed, and their sons remain unaccounted for.
Only their daughter, Jenna, survived as she was away at summer camp when the floods hit.
“The Trump Administration is working with State and Local Officials on the ground in Texas in response to the tragic flooding that took place yesterday.
“Our Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, will be there shortly.
“Melania and I are praying for all of the families impacted by this horrible tragedy.
“Our Brave First Responders are on site doing what they do best. GOD BLESS THE FAMILIES, AND GOD BLESS TEXAS!”
Witnesses say John refused to let go of his children as the water swept them away.
RV park owner Lorena Guillen said her husband tried to help rescue the family before they vanished in the current.
“My husband was in the water trying to ask them, ‘Please throw me your baby!’” Guillen told the New York Post.
“The man was holding tight to his babies, and he just got swept away.”
Guillen said she saw the family’s RV floating away in the darkness.
“It was pitch black, it was so dark,” she said
“The river went up about 10 feet.”
She added the kids were “so excited” to be on vacation for the July 4th holiday.
At least eight bodies were recovered from the property, she said, and 40 others were reported missing nearby.
Julia, 38, was a teacher at Liberty Elementary School outside Houston.
Her school district shared a tribute, saying, “Our hearts are with the Burgess family, please continue to pray.”
John ran a financial services business and was remembered by relatives for his “infectious smile and community spirit.”
Texas’ deadly floods have claimed the lives of over 119 people, and 161 are still missing at the time of writing.

AN RTE star has made a light-hearted dig at Eric Roberts after he jokingly slammed Dublin beaches in a sarcastic clip.
The Ireland AM host, who hails from Donegal, regularly commutes to the capital for work.
Eric often gives fans a glimpse into his daily life on social media and yesterday he took to Instagram to poke fun at one of Dublin‘s popular coastal spots.
The dad-of-one shared a short clip from the beach in Clontarf, saying: “We just called down to the beach here in Clontarf.
“The beaches in Dublin are a little different to the beaches in Donegal.”
As he turned the camera to show his surroundings, Eric sarcastically listed some of his “favourite” features of the spot.
He joked: “Some of the favourite features are the yard long patch of sand that they have going up the water.
“Also these rocks that if you step on you would most certainly die and probably the stand-out feature is the noise of the industrial work that’s happening just over the water there.”
He wrapped up the video by saying: “But a gorgeous day out nonetheless.”
Eric cheekily captioned the post: “Beach – sort of.”
And one Irish star was quick to hit back at the Virgin Media presenter in the comment section.
Former RTE star Glenda Gilson wrote: “Go back to your own beach so.”
Other fans and friends also took to the comments to share their thoughts on his post.
Christine wrote: “You cannot beat a Donegal beach for the wild space! Although I do love Kerry beaches too.”
Mary said: “My husband is from Donegal and his mam went to Kerry with us. At the ring of Kerry they both said at the same time, ‘Eh it’s alright, nicer at home’.”
Another added: “The Velvet Strand Beach in Portmarnock on the Northside is where you need to go!”
Eric recently left his fans gushing after he shared “adorable” new snaps with his son.
The Donegal native and his wife Niamh welcomed their first son Rían into the world in January, in a special New Years surprise.
Eric and Niamh tied the knot back in August 2023 in a church wedding surrounded by friends and family.
The young host, who often appears on the hit morning show, has been sharing glimpses into their life since welcoming their little one.
The TV star took to his Instagram to share a round up of sweet moments from June including snaps from work, home and family life.
He shared behind the scenes pictures from the Virgin Media studios along with wholesome snaps of what he’s been up to throughout the month.
HEALTH chiefs have laid out the symptoms of a common infection that you might notice when you are putting on your socks.
The HSE have warned people across the country to look for five signs of a fungal infection that commonly arises in the hotter months.
Athlete’s foot is a common fungal infection that affects your feet.
It commonly arises in the hotter months when feet get sweaty and warm inside shoes.
The HSE took to social media to warm people about the early signs of the fungal infection.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they said: “Athlete’s foot is a common fungal infection that affects the feet.
“You can usually treat it with creams, sprays or powders from a pharmacy, but it can keep coming back.”
Athlete’s foot is contagious and can be caught from contact with other people who have the infection.
You can get it by walking barefoot where someone with athlete’s foot has walked, such as in changing rooms and showers.
People can also get it by touching your foot against the affected skin of someone with athlete’s foot.
Health bosses also explained that you’re more likely to get it if you have wet or sweaty feet, or if you have broken skin on your feet.
The main symptoms to look out for include itchy white patches between your toes.
Red, sore and flaky patches on your feet, fluid-filled blisters and skin that may crack and bleed are also symptoms of the infection.
The fungal infection can also affect the soles and the sides of feet.
Treatments come in the form of creams, sprays and powders, with most taking a few weeks to work.
To stop the fungal infection from coming back, it is advised to use some form of pharmacy treatment.
There are things you can do yourself to treat athlete's foot and stop it returning:
Do
Don’t
If these treatments don’t work, or if you have diabetes or a weak immune system, it is advised that you see your GP.
In order to prevent athlete’s foot from developing, the HSE advise drying your feet after washing them – particularly between your toes.
It is also advised to use a separate towel for your feet, take your shoes off when at home, and wear clean socks every day.
Wearing flip-flops in public places, such as changing rooms and showers, can also help to reduce the chances of developing athlete’s foot.
The HSE added: “It is unlikely that athlete’s foot will get better on its own. But you do not usually need to see a GP.
“Talk to your pharmacist if you think you have athlete’s foot. They will tell you which antifungal medicine to use.
“The medicine usually takes a few weeks to work. You can keep using some medicines to stop athlete’s foot coming back.
“It is important to keep your feet clean and dry.”

BARBIE has made a huge announcement, bringing out a brand new doll with a very common illness that impacts thousands of Irish.
For years, the underrepresentation of different types of looks and illnesses in dolls was something that was spoken about often.
Many young kids would play with dolls that all looked similar, but didn’t necessarily look like or represent them.
In recent years, toy manufacturers have been leading the way in making children feel represented with the toys they play with.
Now, the Barbie Fashionistas line features more than 175 looks with various skin tones, eye colours, hair colours and textures, body types, disabilities, and fashion styles.
There is also the Blind Barbie doll, a Black Barbie doll with Down Syndrome, a Barbie doll with Hearing Aids, a Barbie doll with Prosthetic Limbs, a Barbie doll with Vitiligo and Barbie dolls in Wheelchairs.
Now, Barbie is taking it a step further, launching a doll with a very common illness.
In a first of its kind, this new Barbie doll will have type 1 diabetes.
The huge company is partnering with Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF), the leading global research and advocacy organisation for type 1 diabetes.
It is being developed in an effort to allow more kids to see themselves represented and reflected, and encourage children to engage in doll play that extends beyond a child’s lived experience.
Aaron J. Kowalski, Ph.D., CEO of Breakthrough T1D said: “We were thrilled when Barbie approached us to collaborate on the development of the Barbie doll with type 1 diabetes.
“I have lived with T1D since I was 13, and my brother since he was 3, so this partnership is deeply personal – it means the world to be part of bringing greater visibility to a condition that affects so many families.
“It’s an honor to work with a brand that shares our commitment to showing children that a life with type 1 diabetes can be full, vibrant, and empowering.”
Every single detail will be recognised by those who live with the condition, from the medical equipment all the way down to the dress pattern.
The new dolls will include:
The doll is modelled after and honours English model Lila Moss, who is a type 1 diabetes advocate and daughter of Kate Moss.
Lila said: “I am proud to use my platform to educate around type 1 diabetes and show that being different is cool.
“Receiving messages from people who see my patches and feel represented means everything to me.
“To be able to now see Barbie dolls with T1D, and to receive a Barbie doll that visibly looks like me even wearing her patches, is both surreal and special.”
Krista Berger, Senior Vice President of Barbie and Global Head of Dolls said: “Introducing a Barbie doll with type 1 diabetes marks an important step in our commitment to inclusivity and representation.
“Barbie helps shape children’s early perceptions of the world, and by reflecting medical conditions like T1D, we ensure more kids can see themselves in the stories they imagine and the dolls they love.”
The Barbie brand has also honoured US type 1 diabetes advocate Robin Arzón.
It’s believed that between 20,000 and 30,000 people in Ireland have type 1 diabetes.
The autoimmune condition causes the level of glucose (sugar) in your blood to become too high.
This causes the immune system to attack and destroy the cells that produce insulin, the hormone which keeps the glucose in the blood at the correct range.
The only treatment available is insulin, and you may require daily injections or need to use an insulin pump once diagnosed.
Symptoms of type 1 diabetes can come on quickly, especially in children.
Your GP will take some blood samples and check your blood glucose (sugar) level.
It’s important to get it checked, as there is a risk of short and long-term complications which can include highs and lows in blood sugar, damage to the kidneys, eyes, nerves, and heart, and even death.
Globally, it impacts almost 9 million people, and there is currently no cure.
The 2025 Barbie Fashionistas dolls, including the Barbie doll with type 1 diabetes, will be available on Mattel Shop and retailers nationwide for €13.99.
