Black British History Icon - Floella Benjamin (Born 1949)

Baroness Floella Benjamin was born in 1949 on the Caribbean island called Trinidad. At age 10, Floella moved to the United Kingdom. She says she did not feel welcome in the UK at that time and that she found it really hard to fit in. Floella went on to appear in many different shows, and when she was 27 years old she became one of the presenters of a children's TV show called Play School. It's one of the most popular children's TV programmes ever! In 1995 Floella wrote a book all about herself called Coming to England. It describes her journey as a child from Trinidad in the Caribbean all the way to England in the UK. It's a story about what it's like to arrive somewhere new and feel very different from everyone else. Floella also has received so many different awards! She has an award called an OBE to say thank you for her work in television. She's been to Buckingham Palace to receive an award for all her work helping different charities. And she even has an award from a university saying thank you for everything she's done to make life better for people living in the UK. Floella's life has been truly inspiring. Ever since she arrived in England as a young girl she's been making an impact and bringing us all together. She's helped many people from different backgrounds to understand each other. Her achievements are truly something to shout about. Floella - we salute you!
