Today we honour the our ancestors, the Windrush Generation - their courage, their contribution, and their legacy.
In 1948, the HMT Empire Windrush arrived in the UK, carrying Caribbean people who came to help rebuild the country after the war. They shaped Britain’s culture, economy, and public services — especially the NHS — with strength, resilience and pride.
Windrush Day is a time to celebrate their impact, tell the truth of their experiences, and ensure their stories are never forgotten.
We also recognise that many have faced injustice and continue to fight for recognition and redress.
Their legacy lives on in us — in our families, our communities, and in the continued call for dignity and justice.
