Legacy of the Nation: A Night of Reflection and Gratitude
On September 16, the St. Christopher National Trust hosted Legacy of the Nation at the National Heroes Park in honour of National Heroes Day.
The evening brought together historians, community members, and supporters to reflect on the lives and sacrifices of our National Heroes. Through stories, presentations, and dialogue, we revisited the industries, institutions, and struggles that shaped St. Kitts and Nevis. It was a moment to celebrate not only the past but also the ongoing journey of preserving our heritage for the future.
Reaching Our Community Near and Far
While many joined us in person, we are especially grateful to the nearly 3,000 viewers who tuned in live on YouTube from across the diaspora and beyond. Your participation shows the strength of our community and the importance of ensuring that our history and culture remain accessible to everyone, no matter where they are in the world. Thanks to technology, we will continue to share our programmes both locally and internationally.

This event would not have been possible without the dedication of our sponsors, partners, and volunteers. Your support ensures that the Trust can continue its mission to protect our heritage sites, foster cultural education, and tell the stories that connect us all.
