Residents of south London housing estate demand urgent repairs

Damp and mould so bad one cancer patient had to sleep on floor after ceiling collapsed, say residents

Hundreds of residents on a south London housing estate are demanding action from their council landlord, which they claim is ignoring urgent repairs needed on their homes.

Residents of the Tulse Hill estate say they have been left dealing with widespread issues of damp and mould that are so bad that in one case a cancer patient had to sleep on the floor for months after his ceiling collapsed twice.
