It was the tragedy that really should have been social housing's defining moment. The Grenfell Tower fire claimed 72 lives, including 18 children, and left more than 70 others injured.
Some of the firefighters who rushed to rescue those inside have even been diagnosed with rare cancers linked to contaminants from the blaze. The horror had unfolded 18 months before Awaab Ishak had even been born - and three-and-a-half years before his death.
Ed Daffarn was rescued from the 16th floor of Grenfell as the West London tower block was engulfed in flames on June 14, 2017. "I was literally taking my last breath when I got rescued by a firefighter who stumbled across me in a communal stairwell," he told the Manchester Evening News.
