redundant - SW help with mortgage?

Hi

Just got told could be made reduntant, have a mortgage and need to know if there is any help available for meeting the repayments-
I need to know if there are any additional dole payments - like rent subsidies but for mortgages i guess
I am hoping to get a new job but there aren't many out there also won't find out till the week before Christmas if I have lost my job.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Re: redundency and mortgages

See http://www.welfare.ie/EN/Schemes/SupplementaryWelfareAllowance/Pages/MortgageInterstSupplement.aspx for details of means tested mortgage interest supports. I read some reports in recent months that DSFA were taking a negative view of people who had taken on unreasonable mortgages.
