Suffolk fire 'stable' and fundraiser set up
Fire crews remain on site to tackle any hotspots and fires as they emerge
The blaze that has devastated heathland in Suffolk is now "stable" but crews have continued to tackle hotspots on what is the fourth day since the flames took hold.
The fire affecting RSPB Minsmere and Dunwich Heath started at about 17:00 BST on Wednesday and engulfed 371 acres (150 hectares) at its height - equivalent to the size of 210 football pitches.
Wildlife habitats of some of the UK's rarest species have been destroyed.
The National Trust has launched a fundraiser to help the habitats "recover and thrive in a changing climate".
Meanwhile, some local people have started returning to normal life.
A scheduled market went ahead at nearby Westleton earlier, which an organiser said was the chance for people to take their minds off recent events.
Suffolk wildfire impact 'will be felt for years to come', charity says as blaze burns for fourth day
In an update shared earlier on Saturday, a Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: "The situation remains stable, although firefighting operations continue and crews are responding to hotspots where they emerge."
The National Trust, which looks after Dunwich Heath, has said the area only recently showed signs of recovery following extreme heat and drought in 2022.
