Karoon Islaaw, a 67-year-old resident of a Northolt council flat, is living in distress due to extensive mould growth and cold conditions exacerbated by her health issues. Despite multiple reports to Ealing Council regarding leaks and inadequate ventilation, she feels ignored and unsupported, having waited seven years without repairs. Her situation highlights the struggle faced by tenants who deal with these issues and the inadequate responses from local councils. Islaaw feels embarrassed to host guests and concerned about her health, expressing a desire for necessary repairs rather than relocation.
In Karoon Islaaw's flat, mould spreads on almost every wall. The 67-year-old avoids guests due to embarrassment, exacerbated by poor heating and arthritis.
The mould problem stems from leaks and outdated windows. Despite numerous reports to Ealing Council, Islaaw claims there has been no meaningful help for years.
