Hopefully your landlord will be better about this than ours was - a threat to call Environmental Health was the only thing that lit a fire under him. We knew there was a leak in the roof that was causing seepage that was causing mould high on a wall - convincing him of that took a while, and then took even longer to fix.
While waiting for the roof to be replaced (summer of '07, it was SO wet and rainy!), the landlord provided the de-humidifier and also had an airbrick installed into the room to help circulation - it didn't really make a difference, since it was summertime and the windows were always open.
We took photos of everything as well, hoping to be able to document things if necessary. Happily that didn't have to happen - hope your problem gets fixed - that looks much worse than what we had to deal with!
