The money raised will go to the residents of Grenfell Tower and will hopefully, even in some small way, help them with whatever they may need in the aftermath.
Marilyn Barford was one of many people who donated and left a comment on the page, saying: “I hope in time these people will all be able to re-build their lives. My heart goes out to them all.”
Another fundraising page, set up by Anass Boudarka, reached over £20,000 on Wednesday. It is now up to £38,510. Boudarka said: “I am an A-Level Student living in Kensington trying to help as many people as possible in their time of need. Please help us do this by donating.”
A spokesperson from Just Giving said:
"The swell in generosity for those involved in the awful fire at Grenfell Tower has been astonishing. Not only through the hundreds of pages set up on JustGiving, but also those sending supplies to the area. We’ll keep working to ensure that those who want to give can, easily and safely."
