Ben And Tracy's House Fire Spofforth

Hello, my name name is harry and I am writing on behalf of Ben and Tracy who have just tragically lost their house to a fire on the 19th of August 2025 at around 2 o clock in the early hours of the morning. Their lives have been completely taken away from them by a fire that spread so fast it was lucky there was no one injured with just minor smoke inhalation and shock.

It took the fire brigade close to 4 hours to fully extinguish the fire that was constantly being fuelled by a gas leak that was caused during the fire that also took over 5 hours to be turned off by northern gas. They are the most incredible people you can meet that are always there for you and are so caring to everyone around them but have had the worst luck possible over the years and now this has happened to them. The house is completely condemned and is not habitable anymore with the entire upstairs just being the bare brickwork from how hot the blaze was and in the rooms and the roof are completely burned away, where the most valuable belongings were.

The downstairs has smoke damage and water damage due to the living room ceiling partially collapsing damaging the very little that was left on the ground floor. Sadly there was a lot of sentimental items destroyed in the fire that are irreplaceable and the small amount of things that are left are not in good condition.

Any donation no matter how large or small it may be will mean the world to them and helps getting that first step back into normalcy and getting the things back they lost to start slowly rebuilding their lives. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for donating if you are able.
