Royston John

An Audience with Royston John explores the lived experience of the Windrush generation and the stories that continue to shape communities.

Royston John is a ‘child’ of the Windrush generation. In his TEDx Talk, Why did the Windrush?, he uncovers a journey of how migration shaped the life of a seven-year-old boy who became a seventy-year-old man.

In conversations, Royston reveals an unexpected outpouring from Caribbean people who recognised his story as similar to their own, alongside people from across Asia and Africa.

Listen, learn, share and heal together.

Too many people have been trapped in silence with no voice to speak or share their story. This event unlocks the voice of the children of the Windrush generation.

Are you a child of the Windrush experience? Do you have family members impacted by the Windrush phenomenon? Would you like to share your experience of being parented by the Windrush generation?
