Gibraltar House, Diplomatic mission in Westminster, United Kingdom
Gibraltar House is an informal consular facility located at 150 Strand that represents the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar in London. The building displays the Gibraltar flag and provides support services for citizens from the territory who are in the United Kingdom.
The original Gibraltar House opened in the early 1970s on Northumberland Avenue as a tourist information office. The facility relocated several times throughout London before settling at its current address on Strand in 2009.
The building serves as a meeting place for Gibraltar's community in London, offering a space to maintain ties with their homeland and connect with fellow members of their diaspora.
The facility offers support for medical patients from Gibraltar seeking treatment in the United Kingdom and provides information about the territory. Visitors can find assistance and resources if they need help with matters relating to the Gibraltar community.
The facility has been led by the same person since 1989, with only a brief interruption, making it one of the longest-running community organizations for this diaspora. This consistency in leadership has made the building a reliable anchor for the community in London.
