NEW BOOK:

“British Caribbean Veterans: Serving Queen and Country”

This new book recognises and celebrates the contribution made by British Caribbean men and women to the Armed Forces and therefore to the Queen and to the country. It focuses especially on the stories of over 30 men and women who served in the United Kingdom after the 1960s. They are representative of several thousands more people like them who continued proudly, to join up and enter the Army, Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. More of these British Caribbeans are currently in the Armed Forces giving their service to the King and the country.

Getting your voices heard

Speak your lived experiences

‘Wi likkle but wi talawah’!

REMB VOICES collects stories from people from diverse backgrounds, especially those of Caribbean heritage. The focus is on their lived experiences, speaking to their truths.

Some of humanity’s most impactful journeys are those least explored by the rest of us. They are often to be found amongst the more humble individuals who quietly get on with their lives, in ordinary neighbourhoods. They have gone through extraordinary experiences, travelling across vast oceans and continents. These incredible people are often, continually subjected to discrimination, injustice, poverty and an undeniable pressure to ‘stay in their place’, REMB VOICES aim to search out these unsung heroes of our communities, listen to the thrumming of their voices and persuade them to share their experiences through this tiny, self-published arena.
