Windrush Day 2026
Windrush Day is celebrated in the United Kingdom every year on 22 June. The day marks the arrival of Afro-Caribbean immigrants to the shores of Britain and honours the British Caribbean community.

Black History Month UK 2026
Black History Month in the UK will be celebrated from 1 to 31 October 2026. This year’s theme is “Honouring Our Communities” — an invitation to look more closely at the individuals whose contributions are part of everyday life, yet too often go unseen: volunteers, teachers, nurses and carers who shape and sustain communities across Britain.

Both occasions are closely linked — Windrush Day honours the generation who arrived from the Caribbean and helped rebuild post-war Britain, while Black History Month celebrates the full breadth of Black British heritage and its contributions to the nation.
Our Bigfooters are perfectly placed to help your school celebrate both- get in touch!
