The inquest into the death of Luke Brooks heard that he suffered a sudden health episode before his death last October 25, which was linked to the aspergillus mould.

However, that was likely not the same type as the 'jet black' mould that could be seen inside Mr Brooks' Oldham home, an expert witness revealed.

Rochdale Coroners' Court heard yesterday that a number of calls were made to the NHS 111 service in the days before his death.
