Adele did a continual and consistent tribute to the Grenfell United, who ‘fights for justice’ during the YouTube memorial service remembering and honoring all those who lost their lives three years ago today.
The singer, 32, commemorated the 72 people who lost their lives after a blaze tore through the residential block in west London in 2017. She expressed her gratitude towards the activism group for actively campaigning for safer homes as some 2,000 residential buildings are still quite under-prepared and lacking in provisions with safety.
In a heartfelt video message, the musician said: ‘I want to send my love to all of you today.
Even though it’s so important for us to remember that night, it’s also important for us to reflect on where we are now and celebrate the lives that were lived.’ The songwriter explained: ‘I think that this year, more than ever, there has never been a more appropriate time for us to truly exercise camaraderie, compassion, open-mindedness and persistence.
Persistence for answers. Persistence for action. It’s a fact that human beings are not supposed to be left on our own, we need each other to survive. I truly see the action of the community.’ The artist continued: ‘I’ve never been so moved by them, no one can expect anyone to have that much resilience.
’
Adele has been heavily involved in supporting the victims’ families in the wake of the tragedy, including backing a petition calling for then Prime Minister Theresa May to launch a public inquiry into the blaze.
Similarly, the media personality attended the Memorial Service at St Paul’s Cathedral and even went to thank the firefighters involved for their efforts. Referencing her support, the Skyfall hitmaker added: ‘One of my proudest things is supporting your fight in true justice.
’
The singer promised a vis-a-vis meet and greet with the activists and members of the party, after all this coronavirus mess is sorted out in the near future .
She said: ‘I’m so sad that we’re not all together, it’s always a very sombre event, it’s also beautiful and the kids are running around. I hope we can all do that before the anniversary next year. I miss you all but I can’t wait to see you all, thinking of you all more than ever.
Stay safe, stay healthy.’
