Glaswegian who lost her home in Pollokshields fire inundated with fundraiser donations

A pregnant mum who lost her home due to the recent fire in Pollokshields has been inundated with donations from kind-hearted Glaswegians.

Lucie Bradley's home and business suffered severe damage in the fire that happened at the junction of Kenmure Street and Albert Drive on Wednesday.

A well known medical herbalist and holistic therapist in the local area, she is expecting her second child in August.

Following the devastating fire, her friend Kelsey Moore decided to help Lucie and her family out by creating a CrowdFund campaign to raise £1000.

The CrowdFund page reads: "Amidst all the worry and uncertainty that we are all currently facing who could imagine anything worse.

"The unthinkable has happened to one of my beautiful friends Lucie Bradley.

"Her cherished home and business was ripped away from her in a tragic fire that happened due to roof works on Albert Drive in Pollokshields 01/04/2020.

"Lucie Bradley is a well known and loved medical herbalist and holistic therapist living in the southside of Glasgow.

"Mother to daughter Imani and expecting her second child in August this amount of distress and pain is beyond conceivable.

"Lucie's home, her safe place, her business, everything she owns has been stolen from her.

"Now is the time for us as a community to step in and help Lucie and her beloved family".

And thanks to a huge volume of donations, over £5600 has been raised to support Lucie and her family over the past 24 hours.

Glasgow really has shown its true colours amid the current crisis!
