Galway's Hubble Living reverses 30% rent increase for students after backlash and petition.

Galway's Hubble Living has reversed a planned 30% rent increase for students after facing backlash, including a petition signed by over 1,000 students. The Students' Union played a key role in lobbying against the increase, which would have resulted in a €2,500 yearly rent increase for some students. The reversal does not eliminate ongoing concerns for affordable student housing in the area.
