They were invited by the British government to help rebuild the country after World War II and were granted indefinite leave to remain.

???? Carnival mask making
???? Create colorful buntings
????️ Explore fascinating collections from Pitt Rivers Museum and Museum of Oxford
???? Music and dance

➡️ Join the Oxford Windrush Group on Saturday, June 24th, from 10am to 4pm, at Templars Square in Cowley, Oxford. It’s going to be an immersive experience celebrating the rich heritage and contributions of the Windrush generation. Don’t miss out! ✨

But that’s not all! On the same day, we have something special for the dominoes enthusiasts! ???? Drop-in and enjoy some friendly dominoes playing. Plus, stay tuned for an exciting evening event at the Cowley Workers Club. Details coming soon!
