| Keep the Danso Family Together
Dioness and Lawrence Danso met and fell in love in 1992 soon after
she arrived in the UK and married on 12th February 1993. Their daughter
Precious was born on 1st May I996.
Unfortunately she had failed to renew her visitors visa before
they married partly because she had been ill in hospital at the
time it was due. On the advice of a friend she took a cleaning job
to pay for her wedding dress. She was was arrested at her work place
and served with a notice of deportation for overstaying.
Lawrence has lived in the UK for 13 years and now has to fight
to keep his family together.
