Growing up in Barbados in humble surroundings as a devout Christian, Una was the oldest of ten children.Living in a small rural village with a simple school, church and local shop, life was poor but easy.Then, one day, a blue airmail letter arrived, addressed to Una's mother.The letter brought a sense of adventure and changed Una's life drastically - for the better.John Chandler, a Christian who had once worked with her mother, was writing to invite Una to come to England, get married and start a new life. On her 17th birthday, Una left the West Indies to make her first journey to England, with 2 pounds for a new life in her pocket.Saying goodbye to her parents and other siblings, she arrived at Gatwick airport on 1st November 1961.There, she was greeted by a bright and beaming young man with a friendly smile - John.He and Una went on to have 20 years of happy marriage and 6 children.Unfortunately, John developed lung cancer and passed away on 25th December 1982, leaving Una a widow at the age of 38.As life moved on and grief slowly faded, Una went back to adult education college and studied to become a Methodist Local Preacher - for eighteen years, she was the only female West Indian Lay Preacher on the Methodist Church Circuit for Reading and Silchester.She is the first female West Indian-born Chaplain at Reading Borough Council, where she also works as a volunteer.This is her story, of courage, faith, determination, hard work and a sense of humour.Life is for living and A Long Way From Home is about making that journey.
