Watch the video to learn more and who can apply.

Video: Windrush Compensation Scheme explained

Some people from the Caribbean or countries like Ghana or Nigeria who settled lawfully in the UK before 1988, and suffered because they couldn’t prove their legal right to live in the UK, may be entitled to compensation from the Windrush Compensation Scheme.
