Listen Later

HMT Empire Windrush arrived at Tilbury Docks in June 1948, carrying Citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies from Jamaica, and signalled the start of the post-war revival in which the hard work of new arrivals proved vital.

Guest speakers:

Dawn Butler MP

Richard Meeran Leigh Day Partner and head of the international department
