My mouldy flat is bad for my health

Tenants in high-rise flats in Edinburgh are waiting up to five years for mould-infested homes to be fixed, a 大象传媒 Disclosure investigation has found.
Brett Hutchison, 24, who lives in Moredun Towers in the south of the city, has Crohn's disease.
He has been waiting three months for help with the mould and damp currently growing in his flat on the fourth floor.
He told the 大象传媒 the conditions in his home were affecting his mental and physical health.
The local authority has admitted failures in dealing with the poor living conditions for some residents.
