Could you buy eggs from the US by any chance? I think the egg banks here have pretty much any race/nationality under the sun. Then have it shipped to the UK. Maybe pricey but I guess the alternative is going to India? Which right now doesn't even seem possible due to covid.

I think someone else on here had sperm shipped form the US to the UK because she needed a black donor. So I'm assuming they would ship eggs too but yeah you would have to check. There are tons of egg banks here, and some may ship and some not.
