Kemi Badenoch – 2022 Comments on Windrush Grants

The comments made by Kemi Badenoch, the Communities Minister, on 20 May 2022.

The legacy of the Windrush generation means so much to so many.

As a first-generation immigrant myself, I understand personally how important it is to highlight how much we welcome and celebrate the contributions made by those who choose to make Britain home.

Thanks to our funding, events across England will take place on 22 June, helping remember and recognise the leading role the Windrush Generation and their descendants have played in making Britain stronger, culturally richer and more inclusive.
