Roof has been sealed up now, but the undetected damage ended up causing mould most noticeably here behind fitted wardrobes and starting to give me allergic reactions with conjunctivitis and chest symptoms.
How do I approach this? Does this need to be removed from above via the loft with everything else checked? Can I cillit bang it from this side with a long stretch or a roller and see if there's any permanent damage afterward? Trying to avoid the answer being I have to remove the whole fitted wardrobe.
Advice welcome and thanks in advance.

I'd remove the wardrobe; easier access to fix that mess above it and you may well find the wall is a rash of mould behind it..
 
Mould is not transferring from loft , mould spores exist all over the home only settling on cold damp areas with inadequate ventilation .
