#WindrushDay2025 Tomorrow is Windrush Day, marked since June 2018 to "honour the lasting contributions that Caribbean people and their families have made to the UK." This quote is from one source - there are as many perceptions about what the day is for or means, as there are

#windrushDay2025 #NottingHillCarnival standard.co.uk/news/uk/nottin… Whilst the conversations about the meaning of #windrushDay continue, one thing is certain: those who travelled across one bit of the then British empire to another, bringing with them creativity, beauty, skills,

I've been listening to Radio 4 since 6.00 am and I've not heard them mention Windrush Day once. But they have done a piece on the marking of Junteenth in the US which whilst interesting, seems odd to me. I guess the day is young. #WindrushDay2025 #Radio4

Lovely to share a beautiful sunny WindrushDay with a community lunch sponsored by Leigh Day - - loving the art workshop & can say GrenadaRumPunch is wonderful! Thank you to Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie & team from your trainee lawyers are superb hosts! Bell Ribeiro-Addy MP Windrush Lives

The NHS England has failed to provide pensions to many former Caribbean nurses who retired back to their countries of birth, and some who have remained in the UK, on the basis that they can't find the records. This is a serious injustice which needs to be resolved, urgently. The

Windrush scandal victims have either been denied compensation or in one case, receive as little as a £300 offer for loses caused by the Home Office. They says it’s a system designed to fail that no one talks about. We’re going to talk about it👇🏾 x.com/i/spaces/1mrxm…

Lovely Windrush Day sip and paint event in the beautiful gardens of our community base in Streatham, organised by Leigh Day's Windrush, Immigration and Asylum team. It is always a joy to bring together people impacted by the Windrush Scandal, and advocates and friends in the

One of the worrying things about the ongoing Windrush Scandal, and there are many, is that this Home Office, like the last, seems scared to engage with people who understand the schemes and who work with large numbers of those affected so have the information and evidence of the

Windrush daughter Jeanell Hippolyte has been granted permission to appeal against a court ruling denying her indefinite leave to remain in the UK, despite her wider family holding British Citizenship. Freya Danby represents leighdaylaw.info/44rqIaW

Leigh Day's clients represented by me and Freya Danby are featured in this excellent ITV news item below (you have to navigate some adds first) with Antoine Allen. Just this morning, the ajudicator's office served notice that they have upheld an appeal for one of the men in

The number of people dying before getting compensation is increasing amongst Windrush victims too. The primary cohort are elderly & with claimants seeking reviews of initial offers, rightly so, claims can take 2/3 years & even longer. #WindrushScandal thetimes.com/uk/law/article…

What does 'from next year, 2 million immigrants could automatically claim British citizenship' actually mean? In 2024, 270,000 applied for citizenship (202,041 in 2023). Those eligible tend to apply. Is Ms Badenoch referring to one year, accumulating years, or out to confuse?

Looks like the Windrush Compensation Team have been ordered to lower compensation offers or there's something seriously wrong with the caseworking. I've not seen such poor impact on life offers (comparing cases of the past on similar facts and impact), and a disregarding of the

Windrush in Reverse My parents arrived in Britain in the 1950s & left in 1975. But for as long as I can recall before we left, my mum was planning her departure. We used to shop in a store called Arding and Hobbs in Battersea which had a permanent sale in the basement. We were

We gave no inquiry, no legal support for all, no independence and 60% of claims are offered £0! The only thing windrush victims have is a windrush commissioner who I fear will go down the same track of helping the home office over victims.
