A fundraiser has been launched to help a Glasgow family who lost everything in a tragic house fire in Yoker.
A 60-year-old woman was rushed to Glasgow Royal Infirmary following the blaze at a property on Speirshall Close on March 7 where she sadly died a day later.
Four fire engines battled the inferno and were eventually able to extinguish the flames.

It was confirmed there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding her death or the fire.
Relative, Rhona Brannan, has now launched a GoFundMe to help the family who has been left without a home and is mourning their beloved granny.
She said: "I’ve been trying to find the words to start this for a while and don’t know where to begin. Sadly on the 7th March 2023 shortly before 9am a fire started in the living room of my mother-in-law's home where her own mother was.
"Her four sons and partner were also in other rooms of the house while she hadn’t long left for work. Due to the severity of the fire, this family have nothing but the clothes on their back and don’t even have shoes on their feet. The house is completely and utterly destroyed.
"They have lost absolutely everything belonging to them and now have no home to go to. Tragically not everyone made it.
"She has lost her mother and these boys have lost their granny and their cat of 8 years didn’t survive the fire. My heart is breaking for my family.
"I’m hoping this will help get them some personal belongings and necessities. This family need to start from scratch with everything and also have a funeral to pay for. Any help will be massively appreciated by this whole family including myself."
So far more than £2500 has been donated by members of the public.
