Members of the African-Caribbean community will be given freedom of the borough status for their ‘exceptional contribution’ to the area
Members of the Windrush generation and the African-Caribbean community in East Staffordshire are going to be given the highest honour by the borough council, as a mark of “heartfelt gratitude” to their contribution to the area.
As the UK marks the start of Black History Month, local members of the Windrush community and their families will be given freedom of the borough status – the highest award a council can give – at an extraordinary council meeting on Monday.
