To warm

My hubby is making his first home brew - he is keeping the first lot at a temp of 20 as advised - we have been away and left the heating on which means the temperature has probably been 25 for a couple of days - will this completely ruin his brew?  Also, if it has, is there any  brew that could be ready in time for boxing day if he has to start again?

The good news is that a brewing temperature of 25 degrees will not ruin the brew, it may make the fermentation more vigorous or even speed it up, but it will be perfectly fine, and once fermentation has completely stopped it can be the bottled or barreled
