The UK Embassy in South Africa, also known as the British High Commission, is located at 255 Hill Street, Arcadia in Pretoria.
It aims to keep the South African Government as well as the people of this country informed of British policies and to explain and report the various Southern African policies and views to the British Government.
In doing so, it promotes better relations between the two countries. Though the High Commissioner is based in Pretoria, he travels throughout the country to the various British consulates in other cities in the country.
