Windrush family games

---

The Windrush Day Grant Scheme supports groups to commemorate, celebrate and educate

people about the contribution of the Windrush generation and their descendants across

communities in our country. Funded projects will help people join together in celebrating the

arrival of the MV Empire Windrush.

The grant scheme forms a part of the Government’s commitment to level up opportunity

across diverse communities and help build greater trust in public services while improving

outcomes for everyone and forging a greater sense of belonging.

The response has been overwhelming and we have received 260+ applications requesting a

total of £6 million.

28 groups have received over £480,000 in funding for broad range of projects celebrating the

Windrush generation through community-led arts, educational and sporting events across

England. With £3.25 million awarded over the last six years, the Windrush Day Grant

Scheme continues to honour and highlight the legacy of the Windrush generation.

We are grateful and also honoured to be delivering the WFG
