The company is responsible for producing the animation concept 'Dance of Polaris' (also a novel), and more famously the Harpercollins commissioned book 'Nubian Jak's Book of World Facts'. Nubian Jak Ltd also provide a various range of educational workshops and activities including the TV and stage game show 'Who Knows Jak'. However, to date the company is best known for marketing the award winning 'Nubian Jak' board game and replaceable card sets. The game continues to attract media attention and is still referred to as a “world first” because it remains the only commercial board game on general release that highlights the global contributions people of color have made to the world. In March 1995 Nubian Jak became the Winner of the Black Arts Sports Enterprise (BASE) award, and has gone on to receive more awards ever since.

Then in March 2007 a large memorial  plaque was presented to the county of Luton and Bedforshire to commemorate the bicentenary of the abolition of the slave trade in Britain. Seven months in later the trust unvelied a memorial plaque on the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to Ignatius Sancho.  In the same month a commemorative bronze plaque was placed on the University of London in honour of the the abolitionist and author Mary Prince.
