A grandmother says she has been forced to move out of her home for the third time in 12 months amid ongoing problems with damp and mould.

Aileen Waugh says she has been reporting 'penetrative and rising damp' at her Salford home for years. Last December, she was moved into a hotel for a fortnight while housing association ForHousing arranged work to fix the issues.

When she returned two weeks later, she claims she black mould was still visible on the walls of the property, in Winton, Eccles.

Due to the poor condition of the house, Aileen says she was forced to leave home for Christmas. READ MORE: Brianna Ghey killer Eddie Ratcliffe loses bid to cut life sentence for murder The 55-year-old says mould and damp has become such a problem that floorboards have collapsed.
