We are an independent registered charity. It was set up by the bereaved who felt that no other organisation was voicing their concerns or representing them adequately. Our challenging to local authority and central government and CNWL has meant that we have been starved of any support, financial or otherwise. All that we have been able to achieve up-to-date was done on a voluntary basis and with no resources.
Our appeal for donations and financial support is to enable the trust to work effectively and to deliver better services and support to the bereaved, survivors, and the North Kensington Community. We have no administration or coordination support to enable us to work on many fronts and to have the impact we aim to have. Our main areas of development and support are:
- An independent and loud voice for the bereaved and survivors that advocates on their behalf.
- Co-production and co-design of services tailored to the specific needs of the bereaved and survivors.
- Ensuring the development of an effective memorial committee to create a befitting memorial site/legacy.
- Coordination with the Public Inquiry to achieve justice and redress for the 72 people who passed away.
- Better communication and information sharing by Dedicated Service about the resources and services available to the bereaved and survivors.
- Proper engagement and active participation of BSR in the development of recovery strategies and their implementation.
We seek your donations and financial support to be able to relieve the stress and trauma that these people have suffered, especially finding out that all the resources were spent while they were grieving and that they didn’t have a say on how it should have been spent.
