Factory work was a major part of working life for many Windrush women.

From textiles and clothing to manufacturing, they helped keep British industry moving.

📸 This is Mavis, whose story we discovered through our research into factories in Walsall.

Mavis worked at H.B. Case, a historic leather goods and manufacturing works in Walsall, giving us an amazing connection between her story, local Windrush history and Walsall's industrial past!

Still celebrating 40 years of WBSC. 🎉

A few more moments from our 40th Anniversary Celebration, where we came together to mark four decades of community, connection and incredible memories!

It was a milestone we were proud to celebrate, and we're still loving looking back at some of the moments from the evening.

Music was an important part of Caribbean life, and when the Windrush generation came to Britain, they brought those sounds, traditions and records with them.

From reggae and ska to soundsystem culture, Caribbean music went on to have a huge influence on Britain's musical landscape. 🎶

We spotted these records when we visited a replica West Indian front room during our community scanning day, giving us a little glimpse into how music was enjoyed at home and shared with family and friends.

📖 A different story to tell.

Flourishing in Babylon: Black British Agency and Self-Determination is the latest book from Joe Aldred.

Exploring Black British identity through the ideas of agency, self-determination and flourishing, the book asks us to think about the stories we tell, and the futures we have the power to shape.

✨ One for the reading list!

This week, we celebrated the tradition of Saturday soup for but for many Caribbean families, food has always meant something even greater.

In this clip, Lillian reflects on family gatherings, shopping trips to the market and the joy of having generations together under one roof. From homemade soup to Christmas dinners, her memories remind us that some of life's most treasured moments are shared around the table.
