On this day in 2020, the late 2 year old toddler, Awaab Ishak, had died from damp/mould that was within his social housing property.

Awaab was born on 13th Dec 2018. Two years ago on what should've been his 5th birthday, I visited the block where he had lived #Awaabslaw.

Absolutely outrageous. A single mum with medical proof that damp and mould are wrecking her lungs told to just “ventilate better” and move back in?! 🤬

Holly deserves a safe home, not gaslighting from a housing association hiding behind “humidity levels.”

Awaab’s Law comes into force this week.

A landmark step to protect millions of tenants from unsafe housing conditions.

No one should live with dangerous damp, mould, or hazards.

Our changes will give tenants a stronger voice and force landlords to act urgently when lives are at risk.

Awaab's Law has now come into effect. But is @lewisham.gov.uk ready to meet it's obligations as a landlord?

After a damning Housing Ombudsman report, I've written to the Cabinet Member and Director for Housing to get assurances for our residents.
