High Commission of Jamaica, London
The High Commission of Jamaica in London is the diplomatic mission of Jamaica in the United Kingdom.
==History==
The High Commission had its beginnings in 1962. Among the first diplomatic missions to be established after the attainment of independence from Britain, the office was initially located at Bruton and Grosvenor Streets, then on St. James Street, before eventually moving to its current location Prince Consort Road.〔http://www.jhcuk.com/history_JHC_London.htm〕
For many decades, Jamaicans have been travelling to England to work and study. In the 1940s many Jamaicans volunteered and fought alongside the British in World War II. In the post-war era, there was mass migration from Jamaica due labour shortages in the 'motherland', with the first arrivals aboard MV Empire Windrush, bringing almost 500 Jamaicans to Britain.〔http://www.obv.org.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1056&Itemid=134〕 Waves of Jamaicans later emigrated to the United Kingdom for economic and educational reasons.〔http://www.jhcuk.com/history_JHC_London.htm〕
