A segment of Mould is Political was projected on the House of Commons on Wednesday 13 March at 6.30pm to draw attention to the issue of mould lurking within the wider housing crisis.

Homes for us and Homes for all were behind the 13 March action.

58% of privately rented households in England have damp, mould, or excessive cold.

8% of homes in England have some form of damp problem.

The NHS estimates it could save £38 million annually on treating patients with damp and mould-related illnesses if damp problems were rectified.

If you wish to see this short screening again it is showing at 6.30pm on Wednesday 16 March when Generation Rent will be repeating the action.
