Response to UK government’s package of support for Hongkongers

 

“We welcome the UK government’s decision today to set up a support package for BN(O) citizens and their families.

 

In the past few months, we have been receiving many inquiries every day from Hongkongers coming to the UK, responding to their issues and questions on visa application, housing, employment, education and mental health support.  As a civil society organisation providing community services to Hongkongers, we are pleased to see the government is ready to step in and support us."

OUR FAITH

“Hong Kong does not only mean a place but people who love the values of democracy and freedom. We share the universal values but maintain as purely a non- politically oriented expat group, our mission is to include HongKongers as a specific culture amongst others into this diversified but united British society. I hope the establishment of this club can start a new era, not an end, of Hong Kong.”


- Simon Cheng

Founder of Hongkongers in Britain

BACKGROUND

Freedoms are being eroded in Hong Kong. Millions are under threat since the Hong Kong pro-democracy protest in 2019. Thousands have been prosecuted. More and more flee overseas to seek sanctuary. With the implementation of the National Security Law, these numbers will rise in the foreseeable future.

 

Freedom is in Peril. Now is the time for the international community to stand up and help.

 

With the recent announcement of the UK extending the rights to BNO holders and their families to live, stay, work and study in the UK, the International Lifeboat Campaign is also strengthening. There is still hope in the darkest hour.

Meet Us Physically
(Coming Soon)

Coming Soon

​

We aim to build a community for people who will be able not only to virtually but also physically meet, so we will seek a site for this community.

​

This site will be meant as premises for members to meet and engage in events. We are exploring various business models (further ideas to be announced), to sustain the daily operation of the community and provide membership services, we are also looking into setting up businesses that could allow the employment of Hongkongers in need. 

​

We encourage HongKongers to contribute to the UK economy, such as the plan hiring people here including HongKongers, and schedule events for HongKongers such as social networking, vocational training, seminar running, business matching, cultural exchange, campaign advocacy etc. in the UK.

​

We envision the development of a Hong Kong community around the premises, projecting the network and having members across UK regions.

​

People who donated to HongKongers in Britain during the fundraiser are eligible to become members of HongKongers in Britain, where the donations offset the first-year membership fee. Details on application will be released later.
