  As new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak enters 10 Downing Street as the UK's first non-white and Hindu leader, there is no doubt that the 'sacrifices' made by his parents to set him on the path to the most powerful office in the land will be at the forefront of his mind. 

Born in Southampton to second-generation Indian Punjabi parents, Mr Sunak, 42, has spoken publicly about how he grew up watching his father, a GP, and his mother, who is a pharmacist, serve their local community with dedication.

His father Yashvir was born and raised in Kenya, while his mother Usha was born in Tanzania. 

The couple met after migrating to the UK where Yashvir studied medicine at the University, and Mr Sunak is the eldest of their three children. 

He has previously opened up about how his parents had to make sacrifices to send him to Winchester College, where fees are currently £42,000 a year.
