From Port Elizabeth to Marlow...
大象传媒 Radio Berkshire's Sue Kinnear met Reverend Kenneth Claassen, who moved to Marlow from Port Elizabeth just six weeks ago to take up a new role at Newfield Community Church.
He told her what life was like back in South Africa before making the move to the UK.
"There are certain places in South Africa that are more dangerous than others. Port Elizabeth is a coastal city... it's a very relaxed place. But there are places that you don't want to be at certain times of the day.
"The basic services are struggling, the police and the basic things we have in the UK, South Africa doesn't have as much visual policing.
"You have to pretty much look after yourself.
"The most difficult thing is at home. At home you feel less safe than just being out, because home invasions are a big part of the problem in South Africa."
