Archives and Activism – The Haringey Vanguard

The Haringey Vanguard Project is an important National Lottery Heritage funded history project celebrating the work, stories and influence of Haringey-based community activists between the 1970s – 1990s, whose historical contributions to the LGBTQ+ and anti-racist movements were felt well beyond the borough.


The project founder Veronica McKenzie shares a banner recently placed in the archive. Preserved for over 30 years by an ex worker of the Lesbian and Gay Unit, the banner represents the creative spirit of these individuals, whose work continues to inspire new generations of activists. Head to the blog to read more.
