Supporting Black History Month 2024

October is Black History Month, a celebration of the incredible richness and diversity of Black and Brown heritage in the UK.

Black History Month is an opportunity to recognise and celebrate the invaluable contributions of black people to society and to the NHS. It also serves as an opportunity to inspire and empower future generations. This year, Black History Month is dedicated to shining a light on forgotten or untold stories.

This year’s theme, ‘Reclaiming Narratives’, underscores a commitment to correcting historical inaccuracies, showcasing the success stories, and highlighting the full complexity of black heritage.

Reclaiming the narrative: legal immigrants’ journeys to Hull
Friday 25 October 2024, 3-4.30pm (hybrid event)
Join colleagues at Humber Health Partnership this Black History Month for a panel discussion event bringing together accomplished legal immigrants who have made significant contributions to Hull.

Panellists will share their personal stories, challenges and achievements as they navigated their professional paths. The discussion aims to highlight the resilience, determination and unique perspectives of legal immigrants, emphasising their role in shaping Hull’s diverse community.

The session is taking place at Hull Medical Education Centre and full venue details will be provided on booking. This is a hybrid event so you can also attend virtually as well as in person.

You can book your place using the event booking form.
