## Caption

Four years since the Grenfell Tower disaster -- when a fire engulfed a residential building and 72 people lost their lives and hundreds of others lost almost every possession they owned -- a football club is bringing hope to the community.

Rupert Taylor has lived in the area his entire life and, in the days following the fire, founded @grenfellathletic_fc. Only those close to the community, affected by the tragedy, are able to join, but the squad has grown rapidly in size since the early days.

"Football has a marvelous way of connecting people,” Taylor told CNN Sport. "Precious to us is Grenfell Tower, precious to us is our community.”
