Survey response 034
- Postcode: UB7
- Tenancy: Social housing, housing association
- Provider: Harrow Church Housing Association
- Duration of problem: Since I moved in to the property, in 2011.
- Problem type: Damp and mould (both ongoing)
- Have you contacted anyone for help with these problems? What was their response?: Yes - my house is part of a housing association and we regularly contact them regarding this. They continually advise us to keep our windows open and don’t dry clothes indoors, because this causes mold.
- Is there anything else you would like to add?: I have asthma and the damp and mold severely affects my condition. I wake up every morning with a sore throat, tight chest and coughing due to the damp and mold. Myself and my family feel completely ignored by our housing association and as though we are just a burden instead of a family who needs help.
