AI Mould Solutions | Child Mould Associated Disease Prevention

AI Mould Solutions specializes in providing (AI) solutions for detecting, preventing, and removing mould-associated conditions in Children’s and adults’ homes.

About AI mould Solutions, I am Dr Mark Jones a Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine and a PhD holder from Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital, my commitment is to enhance these environments, thereby safeguarding the health of children, which can also benefit adults.

We use AI to detect and remediate issues related to dampness and mould in buildings, which are primary contributors to ‘sick building syndrome’.

Our suggested technology not only identifies the presence of these harmful elements but also suggests actionable solutions to eradicate them, ensuring healthier indoor environments.

In the UK, the prevalence of dampness and mould in homes poses a significant health risk, particularly to children.

These conditions can lead to a range of health issues, including respiratory problems, infections, allergies, and asthma.

This all leads to societal costs (20 Billion pounds per year).

The tragic case of a two-year-old, Awaab Ishak, who succumbed to complications arising from prolonged mould exposure, underscores the urgency of addressing this issue.

His story has propelled the enactment of “Awaab’s Law,” mandating social landlords to rectify damp and mould issues within specified timelines, a testament to the critical need for intervention in this area.

A report by Citizens Advice revealed that over 1.6 million children in England live in private rented homes that are cold, damp, or have mould issues.

The analysis suggests that a significant portion of private renters in England, about 2.7 million households, are currently facing these problems. Furthermore, an investigation shared with The Independent found that around 3.4 million people in the UK with children under the age of six are exposed to mould, either frequently or occasionally.

This includes 850,000 parents living with a serious, habitual mould problem at home, representing about 10% of all parents with young children in the country.

This widespread issue highlights the imperative for immediate action to improve living conditions, particularly for the vulnerable segments of the population.

The government’s initiatives, including the implementation of “Awaab’s Law” and proposals for private rented sector reforms, signify a concerted effort to ameliorate housing conditions.

These measures, aimed at ensuring safe, decent, and warm homes, align with our mission at Data Door AI to mitigate the health risks associated with poor indoor environmental quality.

I would be immensely grateful for any guidance you could offer on potential funding avenues and resources to further our cause.

Your support in this endeavor could significantly amplify our impact on public health, particularly in mitigating the risks associated with ‘sick building syndrome.’

My academic path commenced with a PhD in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), followed by an MBA that endowed me with the essential skills for fundraising and product development targeted at enhancing paediatric health.

I developed a product named AnimalAgentz, which showed promise but ultimately did not succeed due to insufficient advertising.
