Albert Pejda spent the first few months of his life in hospital being treated for chronic lung disease.
Parents Claire and Steve have been told their son cannot join his brother Charlie in the family home because of black mould at the property that could prove to be fatal.
The couple have been looking privately but, unable to pay a large deposit, they now need council help.
They say they have sought help previously from the council but have been unsuccessful five months on.
