Black History Week at Cygnet Heathers
Service users and staff at Cygnet Heathers came together for a meaningful week of activities celebrating Black history, culture and community.
Throughout the week, they learned about influential Black figures from Birmingham, explored poetry and music, reflected on the legacy of the Windrush generation and got creative with collages and crafts. Everyone also enjoyed a Somali lunch, a Black History quiz and a celebration recognising those who took part.
Receptionist Pauline Blair-Manuel said: “We learned, we created, we celebrated, and we grew closer together as a community. Happy Black History Month from all of us at Cygnet Heathers!”
