During the lovely Eid celebrations last week, our CEO had the pleasure of being interviewed by BBC WM radio presenter Kath Stanczyszyn. 

Enjoy the full scoop of all things Legacy WM and Aftab's early beginnings of how he got into the sector!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us on the unveiling of 'Black British History is British History'.

We hope everyone had a great time! A special shout out to our guest speakers Paulette Hamilton (Labour MP) and Patrick Vernon OBE on their moving speeches.

Our CEO of Legacy WM Aftab Rahman was interviewed by BBC Midlands today talking all things Freedom50 and his latest trip to Bangladesh where a 400km charity bike ride took place for 5 days, raising funds to build an eco-school. The school in Bangladesh will be built in partnership with Sircer Pasha Welfare Trust. Part of the funds raised will also be used by Human Appeal to support their Dhaka Street Children Project. 

If you would like to help and support, all donations are welcome. 

A proud moment for Legacy West Midlands being mentioned on BBC Midlands Today alongside our affiliates Black Heritage Walks Network showcasing the importance of Black British History shaping our local communities.

A special shout out to Dawn, Marcia and our newly appointed heritage officer Sian who have done an outstanding job.

Well done everyone, we are beyond proud!
