Fire crews have rushed to a community cafe following reports of a smell of burning.

The site also hosts Oxford Community Action's Community Café which provides free hot meals on Tuesdays.

Three fire engines were sent from Rewley Road and Slade Park fire stations in the city.
A spokesman for Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service said crews used thermal imaging to carry out thorough checks of the premises.
However, they were unable to determine the cause of the smell.
The fire service said the alarms were not properly operating so "therefore reassurance was provided to the occupier before crews left the scene at 3pm".
