Due to the commonwealth regulations, the United Kingdom has always been able to welcome many Native people from the Northern territories of Turtle Island. They have brought their culture with them, as they carried on celebrating them wherever they settled. To this day, some of the powwows are being organised by Native Committees. The English Circle is still very much alive and is anchored around the main UK based drum group “Centreland Singers”.
