We have had a local reply from a gardening friend and this is the plant we have.
Thank you all for your help in finding it.

It's a lovely plant. I've heard of ourisia but never seen it Thanks for coming back to us.
It is a lovely plant and grows well this far north with the colder weather.
probably not one for east anglia without a lot of help
I think if it grows in Orkney, I think that the warmth of east anglia would help it grow.
Warmth???? In East Anglia ???? We put the heating on for a bit this evening !!!!
.. I'm cuddled up with a hot water bottle....
We managed to get up to 11 C today so our fire is on now.
it's plenty cold enough here. it was the dryness I thought it wouldn't like
Dryness???? Haven't had a lot of that today either
