With an ongoing housing crisis, increasing homelessness and an ever-growing social housing waiting list, families continue to struggle to find affordable housing in all corners of the country.
Hugh Brennan, CEO of 'Ó Cualann' joins Sinéad in studio to discuss how he has set out to address the issue using an innovative, affordable co-operative model of building homes and housing families.

Kate Gaynor of ‘The Paint Hub’ in Co Carlow is in to give us some tips on brightening up our living space with a good old lick of paint and how we can make fresh colour palettes work for us.

Our resident architect & design expert Roisin Murphy will be discussing attic conversions, what are the dos and don'ts, what to consider and how to get the most from the space that you have; and why just 3pc of Airbnb hosts have bothered registering under new rules.
