This report highlights how local communities came together to support each other after the Grenfell Tower tragedy. It shows the importance of community-led action in times of crisis and how people worked together to demand change, provide emotional support, and improve health and wellbeing.
The report explains that strong community networks helped residents access vital services, tackle health inequalities, and rebuild trust in public services. It also emphasises the need for authorities to listen to and involve local people in decisions that affect their lives.
One key lesson from Grenfell is that communities have the knowledge and strength to create meaningful change, but they need better support from governments and health services. By learning from this tragedy, the report calls for stronger community involvement, better housing conditions, and fairer access to healthcare to prevent similar crises in the future.
