Rosemary Oyewole鈥檚 neighbours sheltered in her flat on the 14th floor as the fire spread

Rosemary Oyewole鈥檚 neighbours sheltered in her flat on the 14th floor as the fire spread. She tells the inquiry how her partner made a make-shift rope from bedsheets. They eventually escaped down the staircase with their four year old daughter.

The inquiry also heard written statements from seventeen others among the bereaved, survivors and residents. Richard Millett QC read the accounts of some of those who had escaped from other floors, been absent from their flats at the time of the fire, or who lived near Grenfell Tower and witnessed the events unfold.
