Crews mobilised to property fire

Crews from Patchway, Avonmouth, Southmead, Yate and Bedminster were mobilised to reports of a property fire.

On arrival, crews located a fire in the ground floor conservatory which had spread to the first floor of neighbouring properties.

Firefighters used six breathing apparatus for safety, two high pressure hose reels and two 45mm jets to extinguish the fire.

One triple extension ladder and one roof ladder were used for access purposes and one thermal imaging camera was used to identify hot spots.

The cause is thought to be accidental.

1,200 children in the UK aged under 11 are injured, and 35 are killed, in fires in the home every year.
