The activation of the fire alarm at The Adelaide residential home in Ryde prompted a large response from the Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service this morning (Friday).
Crews from Ryde, Sandown and Newport were mobilised to Adelaide Place at around 07:00 as a result of the alarm sounding at The Adelaide.
With fears of a fire developing within the building, crews rushed to the scene.
Thankfully, it was quickly established that a system fault had sparked the alert meaning resources still en-route to the scene were quickly stood down.
I have an elderly aunt living in that home.
Hope everyone is ok
