Episode 11 - Gulwali Passarlay

Aged 12, Gulwali survived a twelve-month trek from Afghanistan - crossing continents, suffering imprisonment and hunger, sailing across the sea in a tiny boat, and enduring a desolate month in the jungle at Calais, before he made it Britain. Here he was fostered, where he thrived in school and won a place to study at a top university. Thank to City Of Culture, Coventry Welcomes and Hebert Art Gallery for sponsoring this episode.
