London Museum Docklands invites you to hear the story of Ruby Hall who was one of the Jamaican nurses at the time of Windrush. In this talk learn about her experiences from when she moved to London at nineteen and the connection between the Windrush generation and our NHS.
The Windrush generation refers to the people who migrated from the Caribbean to London to help fix post-World War Two Britain in 1948. Many Jamaican women worked for the newly formed National Health Service at the time. It’s an important part of Black British history as in 2017 it emerged that hundreds of people in the Windrush generation had been denied legal rights, wrongly detained or even deported.
