Churches have been opening their doors to residents evacuated after a massive fire engulfed a block of flats in west London early on Wednesday morning, leaving at least six people dead.

Families forced from their homes after the blaze in Latimer Road, North Kensington, have been offered shelter at the Latymer Christian Centre and St Clements Church which are both nearby.

Derek White from the Latymer Christian Church told Premier: “Our community hall is full of people who have brought clothes for people who have been made homeless. There’s food being brought in; sandwiches, fresh fruit, drinks.”

Hebrews 13:16 “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”

James 1:27 “Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.”

First John 3:17 “But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him?”
