The Woolwich SIMBA project was one of the largest and oldest African and Caribbean Community organisation in the London Borough of Greenwich. It provided housing, general and specialised counselling, youth services, African-Caribbean culture, history, music production, photography studio, nursery, education, sporting activities, specialised clubs for the elderly and much more.

As Black communities continually face policing, gentrification and discrimination, this project is an attempt to show that another politics is possible, and to gather and tell the many stories of a strong community who created and resisted for decades.

If you have material, pictures, videos, mixtapes or was part of the Woolwich SIMBA Project and want to contribute to the project, please press ‘get in touch’. If you want to know more about who is behind all of this press ‘about project’.
