2017 will mark 30 years of Black History Month with an exciting new project supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund. Lost Legends aims to celebrate and record the contributions of Leicester’s African and African Caribbean community to the cultural heritage of the UK over the last three decades. This call out event is an opportunity to find out more about the project, contribute your memories and stories, and also bring along any posters, brochures, leaflets, photographs and other memorabilia you might have from previous Black History Month celebrations.
Those interested in participating in the project can also call 0116 257 7316 or email funmi@serendipity-uk.com.
