cassin, if you're worried about riding along major streets, try to get some cycle training near your new workplace. Moorfields Eye Hospital is in the London Borough of Islington, so as you work there you're eligible for free cycle training. Here's their page on it:

This will improve your riding experience no end and help you feel confident as part of traffic. Highly recommended.
If you choose to do this, let us know how it went!
Hope this helps.
