National Windrush Day 2023, today (22 June) marks 75 years since the MV Empire Windrush arrived in the UK, marking a seminal moment in our shared history.
Celebrations will take place at projects and events throughout the country to promote community cohesion and understanding of the Windrush story.
The Windrush generation – those original pioneers who came from across the Caribbean – helped to rebuild the nation following the Second World War, and they and their descendants continue to contribute to all aspects of British life.
