In June 1948 the ship Empire Windrush arrived at Tilbury docks bringing the first Commonwealth immigrants from Jamaica to the UK. Seeking a new and better life, it was the start of a changing Britain enabled by the British Nationality Act.
There's an exhibition, online exhibition and related events at the Imperial War Museum, London, to mark this anniversary.
