British-Ghanaian media personality Peace Hyde has been recognised on the inaugural UK Black Stars List, which honours the 100 most influential British-Ghanaians making their mark across industries in the UK and beyond.
Hyde, celebrated for her multifaceted career as a TV host, producer, Forbes Africa correspondent, and founder of the empowerment organisation AimHigherAfrica, also holds a producer credit on the popular Netflix series Young, Famous & African. Her inclusion reflects her far-reaching impact across media and social development.
The list was unveiled by the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Ghana, chaired by MP Bell Ribeiro-Addy, at a dedicated ceremony held at the Houses of Parliament — timed to coincide with Ghana’s 69th Independence Day on March 6, 2026. The first-of-its-kind initiative spotlights excellence across sectors including media, politics, arts, sports, business, and science.
Expressing her pride on social media, Hyde wrote:
“Truly honored and proud to be named on the ‘UK BLACK STARS LIST’ celebrating the achievements of the ‘100 MOST INFLUENTIAL BRITISH GHANAIANS’ across all industries. Special thanks to the MP Bell Ribeiro-Addy for launching this initiative at the UK House of Parliament.”
