HKB is a civil-society organisation established in July 2020, and is a registered Company Limited by Guarantee in the UK currently applying for charitable status.
It is the first Hongkongers expat/diaspora and community-building group set up in the UK since the UK announced the introduction of a Welcome Programme for Hongkongers. HKB’s primary objectives are to provide assistance, advice and support for the Hongkongers community coming to/arrived in the UK; enabling them to settle, integrate, and contribute towards the UK society.
HKB currently has a network of volunteers, over 38,000 followers on Facebook, dedicated Telegram Channel, Instagram and Twitter page, as well as a well-established network from a large number of partner organisations working to support Hongkongers arriving in the UK.
In response to the growing need to support Hongkongers settling in the UK, Hongkongers in Britain is formed in the UK to serve as:
A MEDIUM BETWEEN HONGKONGERS AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES.
A FORUM TO ALLOW PEOPLE TO CREATE CONNECTION.
A PLATFORM TO INSPIRE ACTIVITIES CULTURALLY & ECONOMICALLY
A BRITISH COMMUNITY FOR HONGKONGERS.
Our team is formed by committed and experienced people sought to strengthen the Hong Kong tie within the UK and abroad. We will host events such as seminars, gatherings, and encourage Hong Kongers to volunteer and contribute to the society. We will use our resources to help Hongkongers to get accustomed to the British society. This cause and goal, will require your support to make it sustainable. Without Hongkongers, there won’t be a Hong Kong community.
“Hong Kong is not a PLACE but its PEOPLE.”
To the people of Hong Kong, local or abroad,
though we are not physically in Hong Kong, our hearts are with you.
We are determined on the preservation and promotion of Hong Kong culture in the UK.
Our legacy, history and identity shall continue to thrive overseas.
