#WidenWindrush Campaign is a legal and political campaign to win an amendment to the Windrush Scheme. Currently the descendants and family members of the Windrush Generation – those who came after 1973 & 1988 are excluded from using the Windrush Taskforce (who operate the Windrush Scheme) to regularise their stay. This is because of the racism encoded in British Immigration legislation of 1968, 1971 and 1981.

Guest speakers:

* Antonia Bright, Movement for Justice Campaign Coordinator

* Declan Owens, Solicitor at Thompsons Solicitors

* Grace Brown, Barrister at Garden Court
