Scots family living in council flat 'covered in mould' fear kids' health at risk

A Scots family have been left fearing for the health of their son and premature baby after a chronic mould problem in their council flat has made their lives a 'nightmare'.

Jason Smart, 43, and his partner Linda Smart, 32, claim the long running issue has left mould to spread to their children's clothes, shoes and high chairs as well as bedding and furniture in the Falkirk property. It has also spread to their baby's cot.

The couple say their three-year-old son Kai has been in hospital countless times with chest infections and breathing difficulties, which they believe has been worsened by the living conditions.
