A woman in Oldham lost everything in a fire caused by a candle in her living room, leaving her with only the clothes on her back, her dog, and one of her cats. Tia Henderson’s flat is now uninhabitable, with all her possessions destroyed, including her recently adopted cat, Treasure. Tia, who has faced housing difficulties before, is relying on friends for temporary accommodation. The community has rallied around her with support, including a crowdfunding campaign. The fire service issued a warning about the dangers of candles in homes.
