A mum from Midlothian who has lived in a 'nightmare' mouldy house for six years says the living accommodations are having a severe impact on her autistic son's mental health.
Laura Carruthers says her flat in Danderhall has become overrun with damp and mould - a problem she first raised with the council in 2017.
After enjoying her first year in the home, the 27-year-old full-time carer said she began to spot areas of mould in her son’s bedroom cupboard, which raised alarm bells, reports EdinburghLive.
