Bermondsey mum of four ‘traumatised’ by council flat mould

Ms Uhunarabona said she felt “abandoned” and could no longer cope with the repeated return of mould to her home.

She said it took over both the bathroom and one of the three bedrooms.

“These children are stressed,” she said. “There is nothing we can do.”

The family have been moved out of their home into temporary accommodation twice, she said. Once was to Bromley in 2020 and also to Wandsworth in 2022.

During the first move, the carpets in their flat were ripped up and furniture was broken and left strewn across the flat, she said.

Each time the family have gone back to their home, the mould has returned, she said.
