A new report into how faith groups responded to the Grenfell Tower has given advice on how they can be better prepared if another tragedy happens.
Religious think tank Theos released a new report entitled After Grenfell: the Faith Groups’ Response.
It states that faith organisations were vital to the response efforts and had a major impact.
“In the chaos, the role of the diverse faith groups in the community stood out. Churches, mosques, synagogues, and gurdwaras all stepped up to the plate, responding practically, emotionally and spiritually to a moment of pain and confusion. At least fifteen separate centres run by faith communities responded,” it said.
