A family lost almost everything after a fire ravaged their home. The Cadman family - single dad Colin and his children - were lucky to escape after an electrical fault in their Chester flat caused a ‘serious’ fire on Tuesday April 19.
Their home, at Wellington Place, on St Anne Street in Newtown, has been destroyed by the blaze, with most family keepsakes and the children's’ belongings deemed beyond salvageable. Mr Cadman, a single father of six, has five of his children in his full-time care.
He is a doting dad to Kyle, 15, Abigail, 13, Libby, 10, Luke, seven, and Jacob, five, as well as his eldest daughter Amy, 17, who lives with their mum. He told CheshireLive that the family were all at home when the fire broke out, except for 13-year-old Abigail who was travelling home from school on the bus.
