Ellie Cammidge, who is behind the GoFundMe page, said: “In the early hours of this morning our elderly next door neighbour’s house was set ablaze. “Unfortunately he has lost everything in the blaze. All his clothing, food, home and valuable possessions he has collected over the years are gone in the matter of minutes. “As you can imagine, as neighbours this is devastating to see so we would like to raise some money to help him get back on his feet and buy him some essentials to get by during this difficult time.” To donate, go to Ellie’s GoFundMe page.
