Calling all Walsall Windrush Elders and Families

Do you have a Windrush Story to tell?

We invite families and Windrush Elders to share their stories as part of Walsall’s Windrush Sisters heritage project. By passing down traditions, values, and lived experiences, you help keep our shared history alive for future generations.

These stories are more than memories – they are lessons in resilience, love, and community that inspire young people to value their heritage and grow into proud citizens.

Your voice matters

By sharing it, you become a role model and a guide, ensuring that the spirit of the Windrush legacy continues to shine brightly.

Ready to Share Your Story?

Complete the form to tell us a bit about yourself and your story.

Once you’ve submitted it:

  1. A member of the Heritage Team will be in touch for a short phone chat.

  2. We’ll then arrange your story interview — a chance to share your experiences in more detail.

Alternatively, you can Maria Brown (Heritage Community Engagement Assistant) directly:

Phone: 07985381548

Your story helps us celebrate and preserve the Windrush legacy for generations to come.
