US EditionGrenfell Community Gathers for Final Anniversary Before Tower Demolition Begins
- Bereaved families, survivors, and local residents will gather this weekend in west London for the likely final anniversary of the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire before demolition begins.
- The anniversary follows the Government’s February decision to dismantle the significantly damaged tower, despite varied views and criticism from some families who want it preserved until justice is served.
- Work to demolish the 23-storey building is expected to start in September and take around two years, while a permanent memorial plan could see a formal application submitted in late 2026.
- Government figures published last month identified 5,052 residential buildings in England with unsafe cladding, with fewer than half having started or completed remediation, as the Remediation Acceleration Plan aims to complete fixes by 2029.
- A new documentary airing on Netflix on June 20 will explore the fire and its failures, with survivor Edward Daffarn hoping it will increase pressure for safer social housing and accountability.
