Collection for Grenfell Tower residents

Recommended Posts

Hi, I just wondered if anyone was already organising a collection of clothes, bedding, toys etc for the residents of Grenfell Tower who have escaped the terrible fire. I have things I'd like to donate but I can't get over to any of the collection points in West London. It would be great if we could organise something.

i'm in.... i can donate stuff but unfortunately don't have transport.


Update....


Luckily a friend of mine went up to that side of town & was able to collect stuff from me.

I was able to fill up his car with a few blow up beds, toiletries, clothes, shoes, food, bedding etc


He's struggling to get around in the area as most roads are closed.... But we are hoping he'll soon find people to give the stuff to.

I have just come on to look and see if anyone is collecting, I'm the same wish to give baby stuff but with 2 babies to look after I can't travel across London. Please update if you hear of any local collection points.

In addition to clothes/food etc (which @RBKC is saying hold back on for now, they are inundated)? I bet the displaced need phones / computers? need some way to get online to get information and get in contact with family.


I know nothing about technology? do people think donations of old-but-working phones be helpful??

    • I had no idea about the sourcing of the paving stones - where is the info on this? The extension of the paved area seems completely unjustified- plus, there is a cycle lane right thru the middle so there are bound to be some near misses with pedestrians. 
    • That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this? 
    • I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?
    • The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside
