Kate Winslet offered London Fire Brigade training

Kate Winslet has been offered the chance to train with firefighters after she rescued Sir Richard Branson's mother when a fire broke out.

Winslet, 35, was among those staying at Sir Richard 's luxury Caribbean home when lightning hit the house.

London Fire Brigade (LFB) invited Winslet to visit its training centre to learn how crews deal with fires.

LFB deputy assistant commissioner Dany Cotton said: "Kate has shown true bravery. We would love her to visit."

He said he hoped her actions would encourage more women to think about becoming firefighters.

Winslet is yet to respond to the invitation.
