It’s Black History Month all year long! In October, the United Kingdom celebrates Black History Month. Black History Month was first celebrated in the UK in 1987. The first Black History Month was celebrated only in London, but in the years since, the celebration has spread across the entire United Kingdom and is now celebrated annually throughout the country each October.

The main goals of Black History Month are to celebrate the achievements, history, and contributions of Black Britons, and around the world. Click here to learn more about celebrating Black History Month in the United Kingdom.
