Owner of the family business Jasmine Pang has now spoken out, two-months after the devastating blaze.

She said: "I feel very confused and lost, I have lost everything.


"The takeaway will be closed for the foreseeable future. As soon as the insurance proceeds the claim, we can start to rebuild the business. But it will take time.

"I want to thank everyone for their concern and I can only pray that we rebuild our lives and the business as quickly as possible."

Jasmine wants to extend her gratitude to everyone who has generously donated to the community Go Fund Me page, set up by friend Kylie Hall. See here. 

Almost £1,000 has been raised by the community so far.
