Graham’s laughter pervades this tale of a Jamaican immigrant who sailed to
Britain in 1960. Moving with his family to a market town nestling in
Buckinghamshire’s Chiltern Hills, he involved himself in youth work and
community relations.
Frustrated with local government red tape, he decided to stand as a town
councillor, and a few years later was elected Mayor. He remains awed and
humbled at the opportunity he was given to work for the whole community.
His life work illustrates how much effort, often voluntary, has been
invested into reinventing Britain as a multicultural land at peace with
itself.
