I have an on-going situation with Damp/Mould affecting our health and safety in Council Property
My mother(whom I care for) is a disabled, vulnerable, pensioner with medical conditions including persistent coughs, bipolar, cancer & I am suffering with severe Asthma, stomach, respiratory issues & back issue caused by cleaning the windows (note health issues are on-going and awaiting Test results/scans from GP/Hospitals)
There have been significant delays in treatment to the Black Mould on the walls/windows/in the kitchen etc and even when the Councils Tradesmen have turned up they forced me to clean the Black mould off walls, when I told them I was in A&E the previous day with breathing problems
I have attached a letter from the Councils Insures requesting information from myself of the Incidents and I track on a log (attached)
I have retained photos of before and after the Black mould removal/repairs (let me know if you require the photo's)
I would like some advice , I don't know if there was Asbestos previously in the flat as we moved in 3 years ago, but I could see very old wall paper behind the radiators where significant black mould was. I retained samples of the wall paper, not sure if this should be Tested ? Also what compensation I should expect or ask for and a letter summarizing my claim to the Councils Insures company (see attached)
