Windrush Foundation – The Caribbean And The Second World War

Saturday 27 July

Join us on 27th July 2024 from 4-6pm at the West Indian Association of Service Personnel for an insightful event exploring the role of the Caribbean in the Second World War.

 

Discover untold stories, heroic acts, and the impact of this global conflict on the Caribbean community.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn and commemorate the contributions of Caribbean service personnel during this crucial period in history.

Without the resources and people of the Caribbean, Britain’s prospects would have been much bleaker and ultimate Allied victory much delayed.

Come along and hear about the Caribbean’s pivotal role in the Second World War explained by historian Colin Douglas. Participate in the Q&A led by Arthur Torrington.

Copies of Colin’s new book, The Caribbean and the Second World War, will be on sale during the event.
