We work in close partnership with MyBookbasket in order to develop and run culturally sensitive and dynamic educational programmes for children, young people and adults with the goal of increasing appreciation and knowledge of African diasporic literature, well-being and culture.

There are a range of ways you can support and benefit from this important work and over the coming weeks and months we will fill you in on how you and your family can get involved.

 What are we doing for Black History Month?

We believe in celebrating the richness of African diasporan history every month of the year. In October, like every month, we work with MyBookbasket to ensure a great range of books and resources covering many topics.
