The Financial Times’ Laura Hughes has uncovered a lead poisoning epidemic across the UK. Lead is leaching into the environment and lurking in our homes - but most people don’t know they’ve been exposed until they get sick. In this series, Laura hears the victims’ stories and finds a government that has failed to protect public health. After years of investigating, she has discovered that even officials do not know how big the problem really is.
