Winston Churchill. No other name from British history conjures up more powerful an image of Great Britain than Churchill.

Black History London Tour

A tour of London’s black heritage

Ignatius Sancho (1729-1780) abolitionist, writer, composer

London’s successful growth throughout the centuries has always depended on and been made richer by the contribution made by immigration, and none have done more to breathe vibrancy into the city than the city’s black population.

This evocative taxi tour will explore London’s black heritage from the early days of slavery and the campaign to end the vile trade, to the first people of colour to hold positions of authority, to the art and culture they have brought to the city.

The tour will travel from the City to Westminster, taking in plaques and statues and telling the unique stories of people such as Ignatius Sancho, Granville Sharp and Olaudah Equiano.

An essential tour for those wishing to really understand London and its enduring appeal.
