Black History Month 2023

It’s October again and we are excited to be promoting Black History Month this year with some suggestions of things you can do, watch and listen to. This year our staff BAME group staged a takeover which has led to some great new resources.

But first…It is also 75 years of Windrush! Watch Windrush: portraits of a generation on the BBC.
