Legal Status
Tuath’s meaning

Tuath Housing Association is a not-for-profit company, limited by guarantee, and an approved voluntary housing association. Tuath Housing is governed by its Constitution, and is run by a Board of Directors, comprised of volunteers from professional backgrounds in design and construction, property, risk, law and finance etc. Board members donate their services and time for free. Tuath Housing was initially established in the Republic in 2000 and is a member of the Irish Council for Social Housing and the Housing Alliance. Tuath has charitable status, is regulated by the Approved Housing Bodies Regulatory Authority and does not solicit or receive charitable donations from the public or businesses.

In Old Irish culture the basic unit of identity was the local region, or Tuath. It is a word of adaptable meaning that has been translated variously throughout the history of the language as people, tribe, or clan, as well as place or territory and perhaps most aptly, community. Tuath’s name, in all its various interpretations, reflects the organisations core values and evolving status as an organisation that adapts to the needs of those who require safe, secure and affordable accommodation
