Man given just £520 compensation from housing association after gran dies in mouldy flat

A heartbroken grandson has been left furious after he was given £520 compensation from a housing association after his gran died living in her mouldy flat.

Pamela Brown, 95, had been the resident of the one-bed flat for 15 years and died less than five months after her grandson Michael Poole first raised the problem of the mould.

He claims a leak from the flat above caused serious water damage in September 2021 to his grandmother's bathroom, which was then blighted by black mould.
