Collection for Grenfell Tower residents


sanity girl

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??

    • Aria has been great with fitting a new shower and rearranging some pipe work for us. He was quick, approachable and even highlighted that the shower manufacturer offered a cheap installation (we didn’t do this in the end as needed something else done as well). He was able to complete the work soon after his initial visit. Would recommend!
    • Yes but the point of saying "through" or "thru" is that it unambiguously includes Friday!!! "Monday to Friday" might or might not include Friday. "Monday through Friday" very clearly does include Friday. Nothing wrong with a useful expression that just happens to come from America, surely? Much of our modern language does originally, just as much of their language came from us originally. Times change, and all that ....
    • I'd say sending them  the affidavit and offering them a full refund for the return of the machines is a great idea. By far the least hassle for you, and will put them on the spot if they have been telling lies. If you end up having to give them the refund, you will be no worse off than you were before the sale (assuming they don't damage the machines, of course). But I know nothing about the legal issues (if any) around all this. Citizens Advice might help if you run into further difficulties? Good luck! 
    • The point is that these door to door sellers are doing it under false pretences, and claiming to be part of a project that doesn't exist.
