I believe she’s wasting her time in London - better to keep going and fly to Kenya. Colonial birth records were not forwarded to the UK. Colony of Newfoundland records for example were kept in St John’s Newfoundland - and not forwarded. Even in the UK there is no central repository. Birth records for Scots are kept in Edinburgh not London. Similarly in the USA - records are kept at the local registry level (ie: by each state) and not at a central Washington registry.

Funny you should say that ...

Most government documents in NZ and Australia are also registered in the UK

I could get the same docs from London for myself and my family and they never went near England

The Archives are better in the UK than in the original countries..

Bad try Noob...

I believe just before Kenya became a Republic records were in fact taken to England.
