''This is really scaring me": Mum's desperate three-year fight to save kids from 'nightmare' mould

A mum is ‘really scared’ for the safety of her family due to a 'nightmare' mould issue at a property managed by Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH).

The mum, from Middleton, who asked not to be named, shares her home with her four children and husband — and has been battling a persistent mould problem ‘for three years’, she has told the Manchester Evening News. The situation means she has to sleep on the floor, as her bed has been mould-damaged, she claims.

The problem has been plaguing her home on and off during that time frame, but came ‘back with a vengeance’ in September last year, she's added. Despite raising concerns with RBH, the mum says she only received a meaningful response from the housing association after she made a formal complaint just before Christmas.
