The Heartbreaking True Story of Britain's Last Child Migrant

In the aftermath of World War II, thousands of children were sent from Britain to Australia, Canada, and New Zealand as part of a government-sponsored child migration scheme. These children were often separated from their families and sent to live in陌生国家and with陌生人. Many of them experienced prejudice and discrimination, and some were even abused.

The Heartbreaking True Story of Britain's Last Child Migrant tells the story of one such young woman, Margaret Humphreys. In 1958, at the age of four, Margaret was sent from England to Australia. She was separated from her mother and siblings, and sent to live with a foster family in Perth. Margaret faced prejudice and discrimination from her foster family and from the wider community. She was often made to feel like an outsider, and she was bullied and teased because of her accent.
