Firefighters across Britain take part in silent walk to mark fifth anniversary of the Grenfell disaster
Firefighters spray water after a fire engulfed the 24-storey Grenfell Tower in west London, on June 14 2017

FIREFIGHTERS from across the country are marking the fifth anniversary of the Grenfell disaster today by participating in the silent walk organised and led by the bereaved, survivors and residents.

The silent walks, which have taken place every year since the horrific disaster on June 14 2017, are held to pay tribute to those who lost their lives and call for justice, with no-one to date facing criminal charges.

Firefighters local to Grenfell, including some who responded to the disaster, will form a guard of honour for the community.
