This Father's Day and this Windrush Day, we come together as one community to honour the fathers, the pioneers, and the generations whose sacrifice, faith, resilience, and love helped shape our families, our churches, and our city.
This Windrush Day 2026 listening session brings people together to share records rooted in community and history. Tracing sonic lineages across the Caribbean and Africa, it reflects on Black identity and honours the Windrush generation's legacy.
A dedicated team of inter-generational volunteers have transformed a neglected piece of land into something truly special. The Windrush Legacy Garden is now developing into a vibrant community space that celebrates heritage, nature, and movement.
