Mould-infested flat forces family to flee every night over health fears

A WOMAN and her three young children are being forced to leave their mould-infested home by night and sleep elsewhere due to health concerns linked to the condition of the flat.

Slattery, 30, who lives in Dolphin House, Rialto, spoke to the Irish Examiner about the constant worry she lives with as her flat is covered in black mould which she feels could be damaging her children’s health.

She and her three children, aged eight, five, and 10 months, have taken to sleeping in one bedroom at her mother’s house nearby.
