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

To ask His Majesty's Government what recent assessment they have made of the mental well-being of those affected by the Grenfell Tower fire.

This Government remains fully committed to supporting the Grenfell community and working with them to build a lasting legacy in North Kensington. This must include ensuring that the physical, and mental health support they need is available for the long term.

Since 2017, the Government has committed over £158 million, including delivering a bespoke Grenfell Health and Wellbeing offer in partnership with NHS England and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Council.

The Secretary of State and I continue to work closely with the NHS, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) and other parts of the government on future services, to ensure there is effective long-term physical and mental health support for the community, including for children and young people.

NHS England is developing further proposals, following its initial commitment of £50 million to fund Grenfell Health services to 2024. RBKC has committed to providing additional resources for the next phase of its recovery programme for 2024-2028. Both programmes will be developed in partnership with the community to ensure services are reflective of the evolving needs of all those affected.

The Secretary of State and I will also continue to meet with the bereaved, survivors and residents of North Kensington to hear from them directly, and to ensure that my department continues to play a leading role in making sure that the right support is available to meet the community's needs.
