The Greek community in London is an established entity with many organisations providing help and guidance but the community has been facing new challenges lately which are the result of the huge devastation caused by the latest financial crisis that has afflicted Greece. One of the consequences is to see new migration of Greek workers some of whom don't speak very good English into this country.
I am proud to see that London Greek Radio has reacted to this by working with the Greek Support Unit in South London to provide help, advice and support to those that may need it especially when dealing with public sector service providers. The unit provides support and a translation service to those dealing with services provided by local authorities. The unit will hopefully expand to provide other support as well. Seminars have been arranged to get people together and explain how systems work.
