Firefighters have set up a fund in memory of two brothers who died after an inferno at the family home.

Donations are pouring in following the deaths of Alex and Phil Kent at Fermor Way, Crowborough.

Off-duty firefighter Alex, 25, managed to lead his parents Janet and Richard to safety after being roused by a smoke alarm.

But he died after he went back into the blazing house to reach golf shop manager Phil, 23, upstairs.

Both died in hospital in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Colleagues are devastated by their deaths.

Money from the fund will be split between Macmillan Nurses and the Fire Services National Benevolent Fund.

The brothers' funeral services are being held at All Saints Church in Church Road, Crowborough, on Wednesday at 11am.
