An East Preston mum-of-three has thanked the ‘amazing’ fire service for saving her family and her home from a fire.

Rebecca Mcnamara was at home with her partner, Chris, and three children in Mill Pond Way last Thursday (January 28) when she heard screaming from outside.

She went into the back garden to see smoke pouring from her son’s bedroom and her neighbours shouting over the fence: “Fire, fire, get out.”

Rebecca, 44, said she rushed inside to get everybody out, including her partner and son who both had Covid-19, and call 999.
