Coun Hennigan said: “The laundrette is one of our most beloved businesses. It has served the communities of New Cross and Sutton for a generation.

"We have instructed our council’s out of hours team to attend and assist in securing the launderette once the fire investigation is completed. Both Councillor Deakin and I will continue to do everything we can.

"The launderette is in a heavily congested area of New Cross but it’s too early to know what the cause was. I would encourage anybody with any information to call Nottinghamshire Police on 101.”
