  • The Rising Cost of Housing in Northern Ireland
    2026/04/04

    In this housing special, Linzi Lima and the team investigate the rising cost of housing in Northern Ireland and the impact on you as a consumer. In Belfast, rents are increasing faster than anywhere else in the UK, now averaging more than £1,100 a month. We hear from one woman working extra shifts to keep up with soaring bills. Jonathan Wilgenbus‑Lamb from Housing Rights explains what your rights actually are as a tenant and how you can protect yourself in an increasingly competitive market. In Downpatrick, estate agent Jonathan Quinn shares what he is seeing on the ground and offers practical advice on how to give yourself the best chance of securing a property. And at the former Mackies site in West Belfast, there’s some good news on the horizon for community‑led projects that could deliver much‑needed new homes for thousands.

    Journalist Claire Graham delves into the growing black market of unsafe unregulated weight-loss injections.

    With 1 in 3 Brits using weight-loss jabs admitting to experimenting with hacks such as micro-dosing to save money - Dr Kieran Seyen shares the dangers involved and the precautions that should be taken.

    And body positivity influencer Mollie Quirk tells us about the importance of embracing the size we are.
