The Representative of Saint Helena in London is the diplomatic mission of the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha in the United Kingdom.[1] Unlike most diplomatic missions there is no flag or plaque indicating its existence.

In 2009, when Anthony Green (MBE) was the representative, he delivered an address to the an United Nations conference on eradicating colonialism.[2]

In November 2014 Representative Kedell Worboys (MBE) and her staff moved to new offices.[3]

Tristan da Cunha, a distant island 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) to the south of Saint Helena, that is nevertheless administratively a part of Saint Helena, has its own representative.[4]
