Damp and Mould: Hazard Awareness and Making Every Contact Count

For the basics to keep workers; occupants and the public safe from the health risks associated with damp & mould. Ideal for private landlords. We set out information required for any landlord; housing professional; contractor or incidental visitor to a property to understand their role and the ‘Make Every Contact Count’ approach; as set out in government guidance published 07.09.23. All housing professionals; particularly those in tenant facing roles; should have an understanding of damp and mould issues and why it is crucial to address them. Landlords and/or their workforce (internal staff; and where possible; external contractors) should be trained.
