Family of six living in 'nightmare' flat are having to sleep in one room

A family of six say they are forced to sleep in one room together because of the state of their mice-infested council flat. The property is riddled with damp and mice appear from "random holes".

Mum Falhado Eders, 32, lost a baby boy during childbirth last year and claims that the family's living conditions may have contributed to the tragedy. The family - Falhado, her husband and four children Yussuf, 12, Leben, seven, Yasmin, five and baby Qaseeda, seven months - live in one bedroom because others room are not fit to sleep in.

Falhado told HullLive: “It is just a nightmare. I try to keep the flat clean, but it is just impossible. I get so afraid the mice will bite my baby at night."
