Awaab Ishak: Family demands 'punishment' for boy's mould death

Nov 3,2023 11:01 pm

The Father of a toddler who died from a respiratory condition caused by mould has said he wants those responsible " to get The Punishment they deserve".

Awaab Ishak, aged two, at his Rochdale home in December 2020.

Awaab's father, Faisal Abdullah, repeatedly raised the issue with Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH) but no action was taken.

RBH said it was " truly sorry" for Awaab's death.

Its new chief executive, Amanda Newton, who arrived in post eight weeks ago, said the organisation would " never forget that a Little Boy died in one of our homes, it absolutely shouldn't have happened".

Mr Abdullah, 31, told that he is now taking civil action against RBH.

" I want Those People who are responsible to get The Punishment that they deserve, " He Said .

RBH, which has about 12,500 properties in the borough, was widely criticised following the conclusion of the inquest into Awaab's death.

An investigation by the Housing Ombudsman said the housing association had been " dismissive" and " unsympathetic" with residents.

It was consequently in funds for new housing by the government, with Housing Secretary Michael Gove saying it had " failed its tenants".

Mr Abdullah said the mould in his home at that time " was in The Kitchen , it was in the Living Room , it was in the bathroom".

He Said asking RBH to fix the issues was " like begging, but nothing got done".

" The Way I felt RBH conveyed The Message to me is that, I come from Sudan so I should be grateful to be housed and that's it, get on with it, " He Said .

" I think they treated me that way because they were racist towards me.

" I feel actually that they have not considered me to be a human being. "

Mr Abdullah said The Loss of his son was a " feeling that I cannot describe, " adding: " He was a very lively boy and he was full of joy. "

Asked how he felt towards RBH, He Said : " I want to avoid anything that has got to do with RBH.

" I've got friends in Rochdale who are still living in the area and I really don't want to go to because it brings back memories.

" I don't even want to see RBH vehicles on The Road , in case it reminds me of what they have done to me. "

Following his son's death, Mr Abdullah campaigned for a change in The Law to compel landlords to quickly investigate and repair damp and mould.

The, known as Awaab's law, came into force In July and sets time limits for social landlords to fix hazards such as damp and mould.

Mr Abdullah said he hoped The Law would " protect Other People who might be in the same situation".

'Truly sorry'

Responding to Mr Abdullah's comments, Ms Newton said: " We absolutely lost our way as a provider of social housing. We were too focused on development, we got it completely wrong.

" This organisation and I are truly sorry. I Am full of remorse on behalf of the organisation and myself. "

She Said after Awaab's inquest, RBH " made A Promise that we would do All That we could to ensure that No Other family ever suffered such a loss".

Ms Newton said she wanted to " build a culture where listening to our customers and acting really quickly is hardwired in".

" We have made huge progress on that over The Last 12 Months , there's lots more to do so I don't want to give the impression that We Are where we need to be, but it's the start of A Journey , " She Said .

A year on from Awaab's inquest, RBH said More Than 70% of its properties had been inspected and it expected to have completed all the inspections by early next year.
