Hundreds of Grenfell Tower survivors treated for PTSD as many still struggle to find new homes

‘More than 200 victims of the Grenfell Tower disaster have been referred to the NHS for treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder.
The figures released by Kensington and Chelsea Council show 220, or two thirds (66 per cent), of the 330 people screened have been referred for specialist treatment.
The council said it has invested £2.5m to ensure there is a network of support with outreach teams visiting families and residents in the community and hotels.
It comes as the Government admitted a “low” number of those who lost their homes in the blaze have been rehoused.
The Central Northwest London NHS Foundation Trust, which also has outreach teams going to hotels, along with GPs, have referred 439 people for specialist mental health treatment.’
