Tammy says the fire has forced her to flee her home town and start again elsewhere.
On GoFundMe she said: “I know these are material things, but I've worked hard to get this far in life and now it’s all up in smoke.
“Me and my children are now in a safe place and are being forced to flee our home town and start over again.”
She continued: “Any help little or big would be kindly appreciated and so grateful.
“Anyone who knows me knows I have never asked for no help ever I'm always the helper.
“So, I say this with a lump in my throat I have to let my ego down and it’s my turn to not be ashamed of asking the community for help.”
