they have always been wanting to do something like this to ladbroke grove.it would be nice if something was done properly to help us. the investigations, inquests and enquiries will take perhaps years to complete but the people here believe they already have a fundamental understanding of this tragedy, that the fire swept through the building at breathtaking pace, and that so many people from this neighbourhood have lost their lives. away from the crowds, it is now three days on. the fire is out and london rumbles on. grenfell tower, 127 homes, stands monument now to the lives, to the families who have been lost. jeremy cooke, bbc news, north kensington. we got a taste of this period there —— be if you read and protesters. speak to our correspondent, what's happening? you can see 1000 strong, many who have come from the town hall. many went inside the town hall earlier and have marched through here and come gathered here outside the police headquarters. we are in the police headquarters. we are in the shadow of the grenfell tower, it's 1000 the shadow of the

latimer road tube station is open, ladbroke grove is open, which is notting hill, which is where thegh, i think, no more donations are needed, no more donations are needed, no more donations needed. but, what they do need our helpers, and these are some helpers signing in. good morning. hello. are you volunteering? the whole community is chipping in. they are taking our telephone numbers, and when it is needed we will come and when it is needed we will come and help. it is good to know that they do not need help at the moment because so many people are already helping out. you will come back later if they need you? yes, we live locally. we will try to help. thank you. thank you very much. so, the extraordinary community effort, another example of it there, to help the victims of the blaze. brought together, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people, in a perfect example of community spirit. also, people like adele turned up to a vigil, who was apparently hugging and comforting survivors. churches and comforting survivors. churches and community centres have opened their doors from

it is in the middle of two tube stations between latimer road and ladbroke grove.ed in hospitals across london. it has been confirmed there are fatalities, at least 120 flat in grenfell tower, we have no idea how many people were in those flats last night. we will show you some footage now which is distressing, upsetting as you would expect from a story of this nature. it shows an individual at a window waiting for help. this footage was taken earlier and we know that that particular area of the tower is not as badly fire damaged as other parts. i'm going to introduce you to our reporter... i'm going to introduce you to our reporterjim reed who has been finding out more about what the g re nfell finding out more about what the grenfell action group have been concerned about in recent months. tell us what know, jim? concerned about in recent months. tell us what know, jim? a lot of people on social media talking about this. a post in november talking about fire safety and concerns that we re about fire safety and concerns that were raised with various authorities ab

in the ladbroke grove fire disaster, for example, an inquiry was set up within days, it reported withint immediately without excluding any of the survivors, any of the families, any of the other civil society groups. it's mistaken and simply incorrect to say first of all that it's either/or, it's not, you can have both an inquest and a public inquiry where an inquest can follow in due course. secondly, the bereaved family's survivors and the public at large can participate fully, including the questions of witnesses. of course this is dependent upon the resources being made available to the inquiry and 3-3 made available to the inquiry and 3—3 things that are prerequisites, funding for all participants so that there is an even playing field, consultation on the chair of the inquiry and consultation on the terms of reference of the inquiry. thank you very much. it's absolutely undeniable that people do want quick a nswe rs. undeniable that people do want quick answers. mayor of london has said the fire was caused by mistakes and neglect and has criticised the local council's response. th

there are lots of community centres and churches but also mosques and ladbroke mosque is playing quitesy it is and if we walk inside when we arrived at 12pm there was hardly anything here, hardly anybody here but take a look at what has happened since then. come on in. this room has been full, water and food has been taken out to those in need and if we swing around to the other side of the room, we have lots of clothes that have been donated and bedding as well. as i say, something that has been happening across west london this afternoon, people walking up to us and offering us people walking up to us and offering us assistance but we are joined by the chief executive of the cultural centre and the mosque. a difficult day for the community. that is the situation, unfortunately, many people are worried about their loved ones, there are people who do not know what happened to their loved ones, they have no information. in the meantime, we are trying to do our best to offer every help people need, we have been inundated with the generosity of the community people have been calling us fr
