Sheffield Celebrates Black History Month 2025

Every year Black History Month is celebrated across the UK and is a unique event that brings together people from many different backgrounds to recognise the rich history; achievements and contributions of Black British/African heritage people.

Black History Month · 1 October 2025 to 31 October 2025 ·

We support community groups, diverse creatives & organisations (e.g. museums, galleries, schools, colleges, promoters and sponsors) in the city of Sheffield to develop and host events (e.g. Windrush / Black History Month). We also provide free educational resources and maintain a listing of events.

Story

The UK government considers Black History Month a culturally significant, inspirational and important national celebratory event that helps to reinforce social cohesion

The African Heritage Culture Forum supports the city of Sheffield to celebrate African Heritage & Culture. We deliver our support in a number of ways:

1/ By providing free learning resources (to schools and via public information boards) that share authentic knowledge and understanding of Black History and African heritage culture is actively (and prominently) promoted.

2/ Engaging with key local partners to organise celebratory ‘civic’ events.

3/ Through publicising insights into the lasting influence and valued contributions made by African heritage/Black British people to the UK’s culture and wider economy.

With your help, we can ensure the October 2025 celebrations for Sheffield Black History Month is a great success for the city and its communities.

Your kind donations will be applied towards upgrading the popular community storyboards that go on public display each year (and for use with schools / education workshops).
