Who we are

WINDRUSH NATIONAL ORGANISATION (WNO) is an assembly of independent advocates, advisors, solicitors, community activists and legislative reformers from around the UK

The WNO was formed to address and overcome barriers affecting the so-called Windrush Generation and their Descendants, living in the UK and abroad, who have the right to UK status and/or compensation.

The WNO Strategy is a communication and engagement road map to empower communities to enhance, improve and deliver the Windrush Status and Windrush Compensation Scheme (WS and WCS).

The WS and WCS have been set up by the Government to help people get the right documents needed
