Jamaicans in Britain: A Legacy of Leadership is a collaboration between the High Commission of Jamaica and Editions Media Limited. It is championed by many individuals and organisations who generously gave their time and funds to enable the publication.

Sponsors include: Victoria Mutual, Jamaica National Bank, Grace Foods UK and JP Shipping.

The Nurses Association of Jamaica UK secured significant funding for the book from the 2019 Windrush Community Grant Scheme.

Notable individuals such as Neil Kenlock, Vanley Burke and Howard Grey, among others, famed for capturing visually precious moments of historical interest, have generously contributed their work.

Containing more than 550 names, mostly nominated by the Jamaican community in the UK, this compendium is the first of its kind. It covers a broad sector representing people from all walks of life and tells a unique story. Editor Joy Sigaud said:
