An Urban Search and Rescue officer from London Fire Brigade inside the Grenfell Tower days after the blaze in June 2017
A PROJECT manager for the Grenfell Tower refurbishment admitted today to binning her notebooks — despite knowing that a police investigation and public inquiry into the fire were under way.
Claire Williams, who worked for the London borough of Kensington & Chelsea’s tenant management organisation (TMO), said she got rid of the documents when she cleared her desk and left her job.
She left almost a year after the June 2017 fire, which killed 72 people and displaced about 223 more. The blaze was fuelled by flammable cladding installed during the 24-storey block’s refurbishment, which had finished just a month prior.
