Memories of Ugandan Asian families wanted

Do you remember the arrival of the Ugandan Asians in Leicester in 1972?

Perhaps you were one of those forced to flee East Africa with little more than the clothes on your back? Maybe you were an Indian already living in Leicester who found your life turned upside down by the upheavals of 1972?

Where you were living in the Belgrave Road area at the time and remember what it was like to get a sudden influx of new neighbours?

Whatever your story, whether you were a newcomer or a long-established Leicester family, Mercury reporter Adam Wakelin would like to hear from you. 

Give him a call on 0116 222436 or send him an e-mail: adamwakelin@leicestermercury.co.uk

Please remember to include your name and a daytime contact number.
