October is Black History Month, an opportunity to recognise and celebrate the contributions of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic people, past and present.

Conwy Cabinet Member, Councillor Chris Cater said: “This month is a reminder for our need to reflect and consider our individual and collective efforts to create an anti-racist society and in building a strong and inclusive Conwy community that benefits all.”

Our local history tells a big story about migrations in and migrations out that shape the Conwy of today.

Why not visit the RE-IMAGINING Congo House/African Institute exhibition, currently available in Colwyn Bay Library, which explores and re-imagines stories of Colwyn Bay’s Congo House/African Institute.

And you can see North Wales Regional Equality Network’s (NWREN) ‘Stitched Stories’ from the Pobl Fel Ni exhibition in Coed Pella reception until mid-October.
