The mother of a tragic toddler pleaded for help with their mouldy home the day before he died, an inquest heard.
Awaab Ishak's mum made another desperate plea for assistance with their flat to the doctor who treated her two-year-old son in hospital. It comes as a doctor told Rochdale Coroners' Court today (November 7) that mould was 'the most plausible, or only, explanation' for his fatal breathing difficulties.
Awaab lived at the Ilminster block on Rochdale's Freehold estate, owned and managed by social landlord Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH). His father, Faisal Abdullah, had concerns about damp and mould at their home from autumn 2017 - more than a year before Awaab was born.
