My Mother in-law’s Dresses

Saturday 18 October

A reminiscence workshop dedicated to the memory of Girleyvine – a Windrush Pioneer – showcasing some of her beautiful dresses and photographs, documenting her arrival from Jamaica to West Norwood in 1958.

 

Hopefully her dresses and personal photos will bring back those lost memories. Girley has left behind a wealth of memories for her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to share and remember her by.

Bring your own photographs, bring the family and that favourite dress, come along, and share your memories, share your stories, we have already lost too much.

Workshop by Sonia Winifred, Windrush Campaigner, former Lambeth Councillor and Cabinet Member. A special event, not to be missed.
