Body confidence group hope to remind people the festival has always been a celebration of freedom
When the dance instructor and body confidence advocate Trina Nicole was asked to describe the decades of vibrant, eclectic and feather-filled memories she has collected from Notting Hill carnival since the tender age of two, one word came to mind: freedom.
“Carnival was a space where I felt like I could be free, feel liberated and feel comfortable in my body,” Nicole, 32, said. “For me, Notting Hill carnival was the first place where I got to experience and see so much diversity.”
