A chef, grocer and Britain's only black farmer share the influence the Windrush generation had on the nation's culinary habits ahead of the 75th anniversary on Thursday.
"There was a cultural barrier, trying to get through with the bank to get financing and so on was not easy," Colin told Sky News."He would have to get up very early in the morning and travel to Liverpool docks, just to get the produce and bring it back. So he spent many hours on the road."
She says that without the Windrush pioneers who introduced these foods to Britain,"we wouldn't be able to stay connected to our culture". "The contributions that generation has made to the UK as a whole today is massive. They really have contributed to the fabric of the UK."
