Clehonger family lose ‘everything’ in fire
Hear from Mandi Beaven and daughter Tia, who are facing Christmas in a Travelodge, when all their family possessions were lost in a fire at their Herefordshire home.
They've been left with no furniture, no clothes - and perhaps worst of all, they also lost their beloved pet pug Norbit.
A fundraiser to help them has already raised more than £4,000 as the Clehonger community have come together. Our reporter Tom Edwards went to meet Mandi and Tia.
Their old home - which belongs to the housing association Connexus - has been locked up and deemed unsafe, meaning they're waiting to be re-housed.
