A FITTING MEMORIAL On Saturday 2 November 2019, a memorial was unveiled to recognise the outstanding contribution of men and women from diverse ethnic and commonwealth communities in Wales. It sits within Alexandra Gardens in Cardiff, close to the National War Memorial.
At the unveiling, representatives from different communities spoke and laid wreaths. The campaign for recognition of people of colour’s contribution was led by those who had lost relatives in wars, particularly Patti Flynn, and was supported by several community groups and Race Council Cymru.
