List of High Commissioners of the United Kingdom to Sierra Leone
The High Commissioner of the United Kingdom to Sierra Leone is the United Kingdom's foremost diplomatic representative in the Republic of Sierra Leone.
Sierra Leone gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1961. As both countries are members of the Commonwealth of Nations, they exchange High Commissioners rather than ambassadors.
