Evacuated Suffolk residents and holidaymakers will have a “small window of opportunity” to collect some of their belongings on Friday afternoon, officials said. Those who have been forced to flee by the large wildfire will be taken in a minibus to collect their things in a 15-minute window under police escort. Peter Langford, the emergency planning officer for Suffolk County Council, told evacuated residents and holidaymakers they will be able to collect “essential” items. Authorities warned the situation is changeable (Joe Giddens/PA)“We were just trying to get it out with our feet but they were totally inadequate.” On Tuesday, the National Fire Chiefs Council said more than 200 wildfires had been reported in England and Wales in less than two weeks, warning wildfire risk remains “elevated”.
