RB discusses the 2 year anniversary of Grenfell Tower for survivors and the 72 people that lost their lives to an unlawful devastating tower block fire caused by flammable cladding installed on the block of flats built in 1974 in North Kensington London. The tragedy took place on 14th June in 2017 and involved 45 London fire fighters who tackled the blaze which spread within minutes for over 72 hours.
The scenes were projected online and across media which at the time looked surreal with victims crying , screaming for help and with no help in sight many chose to jump from the building which is 24 storeys high and was burning ferociously. Amongst the casualties were disabled, elderly, children, whole families, friends and visitors of residents. Many lives were lost on that night but what followed the fallout of the tragedy was even more painful than the fire and loss of life.
Survivors found themselves traumatised by their experience, those involved in the fire and residents situated beneath the tower were now left with the prospect of being homeless, displaced and unsupported, ignored by Kensington & Chelsea council and by Theresa May the UK Prime Minister. Some were placed in bedsits or supported by thousands of volunteers from all over the country who donated food, clothing, medicine, mental health & services.
2 years on and many of the survivors are still living in bedsits, have no answers from Kensington & Chelsea Council and thousands of buildings across the UK have been identified has having the same flammable cladding, health & safety issues and councils that are also ignoring their voices regarding sprinkler systems, building regulations & accountability.
Fast forward to this week and a similar fire broke out in Barking, East London where a 6 storey building was engulfed in flames in 3 minutes again the residents warned Bell Way Homes about safety fears and again could have cost lives if it had happened in the night.
Rainbow Blak goes all the way in whilst paying homage to those who have lost their lives and survivors. Silence is not golden this is everyones problem.
In loving memory of Grenfell Victims/Survivors & Grenfell Speaks. 💚 To support Grenfell @grenfellspeaks, Justice4Grenfell @officialJ4G, @grenfellUnited
