A YOUNG mother and her two children have been discharged from hospital following a fire at their home.

Tamara Cleve and children Peter, six, and Ryan, two, were taken to Darlington Memorial Hospital on Monday night suffering from smoke inhalation.

Mrs Cleve rescued the children from the flames after the fire, which started in a bedroom, swept their home in Humber Place, in the Skerne Park area of Darlington.
