Greek Community in the UK
In the decades of the 60s and 70s many Greeks from Greece and Cyprus moved to the UK. Many of them live in London. Also, many young Greeks study at British Universities every year. The Greeks in the UK have created a vibrant community and have brought with them a small part of Greek culture. There are many schools organized by the Greek community where young people learn Greek.
