The council finally folded and committed to full structural fire safety upgrades for everyone on the estate. We forced them to stop treating our lives like an afterthought. Keep your eyes sharp because we will ensure they actually finish the work.
We need as many people to sign this petition as possible.
The estate in basildon essex has had two major house fires in two years, this petition is set up to get our local councils and MP to change this!
FACT- The houses were built on this estate as temperary accomendation but still set to stand to this date.
FACT- The council say they have taken steps to protect families living on the estate (To my knowledge as a resident i have not recieved any of this information)
FACT- The Essex fire services now say that the structural wood on the houses make their jobs very difficult and fire is spread through a whole street with too much ease
OUR FAMILIES ARE NOT SAFE-FACT
What will it take before something is done?
Will the houses only get rebuilt if they are burnt down?
Will their be a death n the councils heads at a further date?
The momentum behind this fight is proof that our neighborhood is done being ignored by a council that values cheap wood over our lives. We have built enough pressure to force the officials to look at the destruction they are choosing to allow. They can no longer pretend this is just a minor problem while our homes remain death traps.

heard nothing from the council about safety measures. typical. someone needs to take responsibility before it happens a third time.
