Statement from The Mayor of London on Windrush Day 2021

Created on
22 June 2021

The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said: “It’s important that this Windrush Day we remember the enormous contribution the Windrush generation has made to all of our lives.

“They have helped to shape our city and our country, and this must never be forgotten or undervalued. Yet two years after the launch of the compensation scheme, many of the Windrush generation and their families have still not received payment and are still struggling to access the advice and support they need.

“It’s vital that the Government does much more to make this process easier, so that families can finally see justice.”
