A woman whose home was damaged by a gas explosion last week in Cornwall says she has been overwhelmed by offers of help.

A coffee morning at Carnkie village hall near Wendron this weekend raised £2,000 to help those affected by the blast.

One pensioner is still in hospital with severe burns and two families may have to wait a year before returning home.

Penny Eddy, whose bungalow was hit by flying roof tiles, says lots of people have rallied round to help.

"It's not a big village," she said. "But everybody has come and they've either come up to you, or rang, to offer help. And it's absolutely fantastic, it really is."
