Jasmin Lindo-Clarke says Another idea for the windows are to have hero’s past and present from each of the 14 independent Caribbean islands. Hero’s can be from our community as well as figures from music, sport, politics and business. The windows can be educating and inspiring. Be great to hear some suggestions????
