Energy companies and slum landlords are banking hundreds of billions while hospitals fill up with people made sick by cold, mouldy homes — a public health crisis caused by total greed…. Cold and mouldy homes are intrinsically linked. I’ve seen families come to our general practice because they couldn’t breathe at night, forced to live with rooms full of mould and unable to ventilate their homes because they couldn’t afford to bring the heating back up to liveable temperatures. With nearly half of UK adults likely to ration their energy use this winter, I fear for the many more families facing this situation.
