Earlier this month we made a visit to the Kenyan High Commission @kenyamissionuk in London. Our archivist @consularchivist met with staff to return archives from Shimo-La-Tewa Prison to Kenya. The records are now at their permanent home in the Kenya National Archives.

Long I’ve wandered to the churches of England. Past fields, marsh, and woodland. Beyond suburban estates and rushing commuter roads…
