My mother, Victoria Frank, who has died aged 87, was part of the Windrush generation, settling in the West Midlands in the 1960s, and a community advocate committed to making a difference in society.
She was determined to amplify the voices of others, whether that be assisting with rehabilitating ex-offenders, or influencing policy on resources for underrepresented groups. She was a key driver in the discussions that led to the creation of the West Bromwich African Caribbean Resource Centre in 1985.
