Celebrating Windrush Day

Wednesday, 01 July 2026

Watch some highlights of the day in our short video below

 

 

Residents at Elmswood Park celebrated Windrush Day last week, honouring the incredible contributions of the Windrush Generation.

It was a wonderful afternoon of Caribbean-inspired food, music, culture and community as residents celebrated the rich heritage and lasting impact of those who came to the UK 78 years ago to help rebuild Britain after the Second World War.

Windrush Day is a time to celebrate, reflect and ensure these important stories continue to be remembered.
