During the London stop of their On the Run II Tour, Beyonce and Jay-Z took a moment to dedicate a song to the victims of the Grenfell Tower Fire. The concert coincided with the one-year anniversary of the tragedy.

The couple dedicated (opens in new tab) their performance of "Young Forever" to the victims and also wore green pins in support of the Justice4Grenfell movement.

"We are grateful that Jay Z and Beyonce dedicated their last song to Grenfell tonight, they said their thoughts were with the families & survivors," Justice4Grenfell wrote on Twitter after the performance. "We are glad they wore the green heart badges that we sent over! Thank you."
