I’m proud of my Nan and Grandpa who are part of the Generation

It’s 75 years since Empire came to these shores.

Many like my grandparents have worked hard and contributed richly to this country. My Nan was a NHS nurse.

We must always tell their stories

Mum’s 20th birthday gift was a one-way ✈️ from BGI > LGW. What was meant to be a 5 yr stint in the NHS, turned into 40. 4 of her siblings followed suit, as did countless other aunts, uncles, & cousins. Thank you . I humbly stand on your shoulders. 🙏🏾
