🖤 THE HANDS THAT BUILT CROYDON - DEBORAH KLASS TALKS TO COMMUNITY LEADER CHRIS BARRETT🖤

A Portrait Exhibition by The Windrush Generation Legacy Association

This Black History Month 2026, we are proud to present “The Hands That Built Croydon” — a powerful portrait exhibition honouring the people whose resilience, talent, hard work and love have shaped our community.

These are the hands that built our homes, our businesses, our families and our future. They belong to the everyday heroes — the individuals, families and community groups across Croydon who continue to make a real difference, day after day.

✨ OUR COMMUNITY — Celebrating those making a difference across our borough

✨ OUR STORIES — Sharing real stories of resilience, achievement and impact

✨ GET INVOLVED — We welcome new volunteers! Come join us and be part of something meaningful

Together, these hands reflect the spirit, diversity and strength of Croydon’s Black community — and the vital role we all play in helping our community to do better and be better.

There are many more stories to tell. This is just the beginning. 🤝
