Community Action Tenants Union - Derry

24/09/2026

Rents are going up, up, up in Derry, landlords are cashing in, and tenants don't have community spaces to talk about it. A main takeaway from knocking doors tonight around abercorn.

Your local tenants union is here, street by street, block by block. Sign the petition in our bio and get in touch with issues or to get involved.

CATU Derry attended a demonstration against racism this week. Housing and racism can be fought by the working class

Last night, CATU Members were in TOTH, Derry, talking to residents about issues of housing and community. Members were told about problems such as flooding, accessibility, mold and damp, and soaring rents. Gobnascale - like many areas around the city - have some of the highest levels of deprivation in West Europe and that must change. Private landlordism in Derry and the rest of Ireland does not add value to communities, merely extracting it. If you want to complete our survey of housing and community issues in your area, use the 🔗 on our profile. Want to help with the fight back against evictions, community problems, and landlords? Join CATU today!

Join us this Sunday between 1 & 3:30 for a CATU community day in support of our member Anne.

So far we’ve supported Anne in staying in her home to beyond Christmas. If you’re interested in helping or finding out more about CATU, you’re more than welcome to come grab a cup of tea/coffee and a bite to eat.

As a follow up to our most recent video we’ve been out in Bellevue Avenue engaging with residents. More cases of incomplete repairs, vacant homes and serious damp.

The consequence of private landlords owning property and failing to keep them in good condition means they lie vacant while the housing list constantly grows. Homes for need not for greed.

❗Recently, we confronted a landlord - Philip Doherty, who is evicting our member from their home of nine years - ON TOP OF refusing to pay back a staggering sum of overpayments from rent. Phillip has failed to complete (or ignored) repairs for our member (safety hazards) and has tried to ignore us as we try to work with him to come to a resolution which does not make another family homeless and vulnerable.
❗ Enough is enough. We would like to remind Phillip to respond to our letter, as seen in the video.
