The preliminary work for Mary Seacole Housing Association Luton began in the 1980s, in Councillor Desline Stewart’s kitchen in response to the direct pleas of young people who were running away from home. Mary Seacole was chosen as the name for the trust by Councillor Stewart because she was a strong advocate of Seacole’s humanitarian work and altruism. #maryseacole #MarySeacole #BlackHistoryMonth
