Brick Lane Circle was among 19 categories of winners. The award to Brick Lane Circle was for Achievement in Education Research/Teaching, which was in recognition for publishing the book called Plassey’s Legacy, researched and written by eight young people aged 18-25.

This initiative was part of a project ran by Brick Lane Circle called the Battle of Plassey Young People’s Project, developed to encourage more research and learning about the shared past of Britain and Bengal / Bangladesh – funded by Heritage Lottery Fund. Three of the eight young researchers attended the event to collect the award if successful.
