Home and Away actress Tammin Sursok is moving to the UK in the hope of launching a successful music career.

Sursok, who plays Dani Sutherland in the Australian soap, plans to buy a home in London, but will make regular visits back to Australia.

The actress will fly to the UK next month to discuss the release of her album.

"I'm incredibly excited," she told Aussie newspaper The Sunday Telegraph. "It will be great to take a new direction and let my Home and Away fans in the UK know what I've been doing with my music."

Tammin left Home and Away last year, but will continue to appear in episodes in the UK for some time.
