Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what steps have been taken to facilitate communication between survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire separated and housed in various hotels and temporary accommodation.

There are 148 families or individuals from Grenfell Tower who have been provided with key workers and 24 from Grenfell walk.

Ensuring that the community feels properly supported and engaged is a critical part of rebuilding lives. After the tragedy, the Westway Assistance Centre initially provided access to support and government services. The new Community Assistance Centre which opened on 20 July, is now providing official support to those affected by this tragedy and offering space for the community to meet up. We are also supporting the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Council's work to engage the local community and will work with them to ensure it fully meets the needs of residents and supporting community organisations.
