As the Paraffinalia 75 Exhibition comes to a close this week, we reflect on why it is so important to commemorate and remember the legacy of the Windrush Generation. For many, the legacy is intertwined with their family history. Brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, grandparents and more. This history must be preserved for future generations, to continue to learn and grow from. A huge thank you to everyone who attended the exhibition throughout June, and for those who weren't able to make it down
