Singer Lily Allen has also reached out on Twitter to help those who have been affected.
She has offered “a bed, lift or tea” to anyone who is in need. For a woman who has previously been stalked by a man who broke into her home, robbed her and came into her room while she was sleeping, it really is an extremely kind gesture to open her doors to people in need.
Locals are doing everything they can to support victims of the blaze.
Multiple funds have been set up online to help support people who have lost their homes with several raising well over £100,000 already.
