Excerpts from [article](https://www.mylondon.news/news/south-london-news/luxury-croydon-apartment-block-repulsive-30029591) by Katherine Gray:

*Residents living in a ‘luxury’ Croydon apartment block have said they feel ‘unsafe’ and fear getting cholera because of ‘repulsive’ black mould and leaks. Online videos have also shown residents living in the building with more severe issues like collapsed ceilings.*

*Those at The Fold in Croydon say they have experienced constant problems while living there. Tom Willoughby, who lives with his partner, said that they had issues with black mould which even made his cat sick.*

*[…] Upon the instruction of building management, he says he started cleaning the mould from the wall for it to only grow back in different places. It then began growing around the ventilation unit, which they had to turn off in May to resolve issues with faulty electrics in the flat.*

*“This mould just went crazy, it went from being this gradual growth, to climbing up the walls. It stank, it was so repulsive,” he said.*

*[…] Other videos from online show residents with similar issues, with some more severe such as collapsed ceilings. A WhatsApp group has now been made, with residents using this to petition the management group.*

*A spokesperson for Legal & General who manages the building said: “Following the main contractor going out of business earlier this year, we can confirm that build quality issues have been identified at The Fold, Croydon.*

*“As owner of the property, we are deeply concerned that our residents have been affected by these issues. We have intervened, alongside the managing agents, and are taking every action possible to ensure they are resolved quickly and any inconvenience caused is minimised. […]*
