In the five years since the Grenfell Tower fire, there have been four housing secretaries, three evacuated families are still awaiting permanent homes, and two phases of a public inquiry into the tragedy.
Grenfell survivors and bereaved family members will mark the fifth anniversary of the deaths of 72 people on June 14 2017.
That poignant number is being displayed around North Kensington on green hearts, which have become a symbol of the tragedy.
It is the one statistic that will forever be associated with the fire.
Here, the PA news agency breaks down the other statistics behind the tragedy and its aftermath.
