I'm reaching out with a heartfelt plea for support to secure housing for my family on the same road where my mother resides. This is not just a matter of location; it's about keeping family close when they need each other the most. My mother is currently facing significant health challenges, and it’s crucial that I am nearby to provide the love and care she needs.

Moreover, my twin boys have additional needs that require us to make special accommodations. They need their own sleeping space, as they thrive best in an environment tailored to their specific requirements. Currently Living in a 2 bed apartment on the second floor in Finglas means there needs are not been met and its taking a significant toll on us all. Being in close proximity to my mother means we can support her more effectively while she can also be there for us with the occasional help we all need as a family.

The neighbours in the area, understanding our situation, have suggested we start a petition to support our cause. They recognize the importance of community and familial bonds, and have indicated their preference for having us as neighbours over complete outsiders, who might not integrate as smoothly.

Securing a home on my mother's road will not only ease the logistical challenges we face on a daily basis but will also uphold the strong community spirit that already exists in the neighbourhood. Having direct access to family support and being able to contribute to the local area positively is a win for everyone involved.

We are asking for your understanding and support in this endeavour by signing our petition. Your signature would help us present a compelling case to the relevant housing authorities, demonstrating community backing and highlighting the need for prioritizing local connections in housing decisions.

Please sign and help us keep our family together in the moments we're needed most.
