The victims and families affected by the accident at the Elevador da Glória, in Lisbon, feel "forgotten" by the Lisbon City Council, one year after the incident. This complaint comes through an open letter addressed to the municipality.

In the letter, the victims express their frustration at continuing to wait for answers, support and accountability from the responsible entities. The document expresses the feeling of abandonment felt by the affected community.

The article title suggests that the situation remains without significant resolution, even after a year since the accident. The families demand more active attention from the Lisbon City Council to deal with the consequences of the incident.
