The health risks of damp and mould

Join us for a free, one-hour webinar, the Health Risks of Damp and Mould. This joint event between the British Thoracic Society and Property Care Association will introduce health professionals, housing management professionals and property care contractors, to research which demonstrates the main health impacts of living with damp and mould.

Dr Laura-Jane Smith a Consultant Respiratory Physician at King’s College Hospital, will highlight the evidence of harm seen by GPs and thoracic consultants, how health impacts could be treated, and the questions to ask patients presenting with specific symptoms which could indicate an environmental problem.

James Berry, Deputy CEO at the PCA, will focus on the UK regulation that exists and what this means for social and private tenants. He will focus on what you should do if damp or mould is present in a home, when to raise concerns and who to contact for further advice.

This webinar will provide value for anyone who is keen to understand how to help those living with damp and mould.
