A multi-faith service and silent walk took place outside Grenfell Tower to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the fire.

 

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, politicians and bereaved loved ones were among attendees of the sombre event, half a decade on from the fire which left 72 people dead and many others homeless.

 

Representatives from faith groups led prayers and recitations and many spoke of their frustration at the lack of arrests and change made by local councils and the government.

 

One Imam said: “Grenfell shows how the powerful and underestimated can suffer, but also how they can achieve.”
