What is life like for Zimbabweans in the UK?

The UK hosts one of the largest Zimbabwean diaspora communities (200,000-500,000). Many work in healthcare (NHS), social care, education, and professional services. Communities are concentrated in London, Luton, Slough, Coventry, Birmingham, and Manchester. Zimbabwean churches serve as cultural hubs, and shops selling Zimbabwean products (mealie-meal, maputi, mazoe) can be found in these areas. The community is often called 'MaGB' (those in Great Britain). Many maintain strong ties to home through remittances, social media groups, and regular visits.
