Mark’s Story

My parents came to the UK in the 70s as my father had a job as a radiologist at Kings College Hospital. They came from Joburg in South Africa with their two young children, escaping the apartheid regime. They choose London because of its multi cultural and vibrant atmosphere and the freedoms that society offered.

- Mark, London
