Join us to celebrate Beyond’s legacy on the evening of 14th July, Sunday. We are excited to have a founding member of the band, Mr William Tang, performing classic hits with locally-based Hongkonger band, GEN03.

You’re invited (but not required) to come in your 80s-inspired outfits; vintage shirts, denim jeans, oversized blazers, polka dot dresses are all welcome to bring back vibes of the remarkable era.🧣👗👚✨

您有無曾經感覺沒有地方可以稱之為家？🏠 由於戰爭遍及地球每個角落，許多人被迫逃離家園。同時，在遠離戰爭的地方，社會上有些人因為各種原因而被邊緣化，例如性向、種族、文化等。

雀屋工作坊誠邀正在尋找家的各位，透過為小鳥設計雀屋來重新構想家的概念。🐦 參與者將互相交流，一同設計，將雀屋懸掛喺公園，美化公園之餘讓小動物有棲息居所。

為響應同志驕傲月，今次活動特別慶祝及歡迎 LGBTQ 社群及支持者參與！🏳️‍🌈

Ever felt like there’s no place to call home? 🏠 With conflicts around the world, many are forced to flee their homes. Even away from war zones, some people are marginalized due to their sexuality, race, culture, and more.

Join our workshop to reimagine the concept of home by designing a birdhouse for small birds. 🐦 Participants will pair up to create their designs, drawing inspiration from artists like Doris Salcedo, Gordon Matta-Clark, and Rachel Whiteread.

In honor of Pride Month, we warmly welcome the LGBTQ community and allies to join us! 🏳️‍🌈

《香港文化社與曼城香港人社區中心關於組織簡稱的聯合公告》

隨著新組織「曼城香港人社區中心 Manchester HongKonger Community Center」成立，「香港文化社 Hong Kong Cultural Community CIC」就兩個組織是否相關收到不少查詢。

經兩個組織商議後，我們決定向大家澄清：
⚠️ 「香港文化社」與「曼城香港人社區中心」並非同一組織，亦互不從屬。

大家之所以有這樣的疑問，或因為兩個組織的英文簡稱相似，並包含「HKCC」字樣。因此「曼城香港人社區中心 Manchester HongKonger Community Center」將於所有可行的情況下，使用上述名稱的全寫，避免再引起混淆。

我們期望兩組織建立良好互動，壯大香港人組織力量。以下介紹一下兩個組織 -

⭐️ 香港文化社Hong Kong Cultural Community

香港文化社於2021年初由一班新移居英國的香港人創立，已扎根於大曼城為社區提供服務數載。「香港文化社」為非牟利組織，致力於大曼徹斯特推廣香港文化，舉辦活動連繫本地人與香港人，促進香港人融入英國社會。

過往「香港文化社」舉辦了各種文化活動，包括曼城香港電影節、藝術展覽、語言交流計劃、烹飪外交、麻雀比賽、思香文化專欄以及社區電影放映。「曼城義工隊」亦為「香港文化社」的一部分，透過公園藝術創作、城市綠化、清理運河、街道清潔、探訪養老院等方式，為本地社區作出貢獻，並與政府部門、各香港人組織及本地社區團體建立了穩固的合作關係。

⭐️ 曼城香港人社區中心 Manchester HongKonger Community Center

曼城香港人社區中心其實係全球組織 Community Centre 香港人社區中心喺英國嘅其中一個分站。「香港人社區中心」已經喺美國、加拿大、英國、德國同澳洲5個國家多個城市設有 19 個中心，而曼城嘅中心係繼Reading同Exeter之後，英國第3個「香港人社區中心」，除咗希望曼城香港人有個恆常嘅聚腳點，透過康樂、文化及娛樂活動互相認識同交流之外，仲希望吸引唔同種族嘅人一齊參與，促進融合。

Joint Notice regarding Organisational Abbreviations “HKCC”

Since the establishment of the new organisation "Manchester HongKonger Community Center," “Hong Kong Cultural Community CIC" has received enquiries about the relationship between the two organisations.

In light of our discussions, we would like to clarify the following:
⚠️ "Hong Kong Cultural Community" and "Manchester HongKonger Community Center" are different organisations and are independent of each other.

Such confusion may arise because of the similarity of the English abbreviations which include the letters "HKCC". Therefore, "Manchester HongKonger Community Center" will use its full name in all feasible circumstances to avoid further confusion.

We hope the two organisations will establish good connections and hence continue to strengthen the power of the Hong Kong civil society. Here is an introduction to both organisations:

⭐️ Hong Kong Cultural Community CIC

Hong Kong Cultural Community CIC was established in early 2021 by a group of newly arrived Hongkongers in the UK and has been serving the community in Greater Manchester for several years. As a non-profit organisation, "Hong Kong Cultural Community" is dedicated to promoting Hong Kong culture in Greater Manchester, organising events to connect locals with Hongkongers, and helping Hongkongers integrate into British society.

In the past, Hong Kong Cultural Community CIC has organised various cultural activities, including the Manchester Hong Kong Film Festival, art exhibitions, language exchange programmes, cooking exchange, mahjong competition, a cultural column about Hong Kong and community film screenings. Hong Kong Volunteers of Manchester is the subsidiary organisation of Hong Kong Cultural Community, contributing to the local community through activities such as community art in the park we take care of, urban greening, canal cleaning, street cleaning, and visits to care homes. Through these activities Hong Kong Cultural Community has established strong relationships with government departments, other Hong Kong organisations, and local community groups.

⭐️ Manchester HongKonger Community Center

Manchester Hongkonger Community Centre is one of the branches in the UK of the international organisation, Community Centre. The Hongkonger Community Centre has established 19 centers in various cities across five countries: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Australia. The Manchester center is the third "Hongkonger Community Centre" in the UK, following Reading and Exeter. By providing a gathering place enriched with cultural, recreational, and interactive events, the center helps Hong Kong immigrants and residents to connect. It also hopes to attract people of different ethnicities to participate and promote integration.

香港人一直經歷離散，尤其2019年後可謂係又一移民潮。過去幾年，香港人踪跡散落四周，如同延伸到海外周圍撒種、扎根、汲取養分，而四周嘅種子正開始萌芽茁壯。
我哋希望可以透過涵蓋唔同媒介嘅藝術展覽，將香港人種緊嘅「樹」呈現到大家眼前，同時藉拍賣為我哋大家嘅手足籌款。
前人種樹，
後人乘涼，
未敢忘根。
Hong Kong has seen waves of emigration over the decades. With 2019 marking another round of countless farewells to the beloved city, the seeds of Hong Kongers further sprout across different corners of the world, planting roots and flourishing with our collective effort.
Through this cross-media art exhibition, we hope to share with everyone these ‘trees’ Hong Kongers are planting, while auctioning to raise funds for our fellow brothers and sisters.
One sows and another reaps.
Never forget our roots.

🎉 好開心可以代表曼城義工隊，獲英國首相頒發Points of Light Award！

🏆 呢個獎項表揚為社區作出卓越貢獻嘅義工，亦係首相對香港社群努力同貢獻嘅認可，意義非凡。呢個獎屬於每一位遠渡重洋、面對著新生活挑戰，但仍然樂於助人嘅義工。

🌟 好榮幸喺農曆新年期間，應邀到唐寧街10號領獎，實在係發夢都無諗過嘅事。希望大家一齊繼續努力，發揮香港人嘅影響力💪

感謝每一位參與呢段旅程嘅人 🫶🏻

（唐寧街入面唔准影相，官方照仲未收到，所以用同門牌嘅合照頂住先~）

🎉 Honoured to receive the Prime Minister's Points of Light Award 2024 on behalf of Hong Kong Volunteers in Manchester!

🏆 Being recognised by the Prime Minister is a testament to the incredible efforts of the Hong Kong community, who have travelled thousands of miles to arrive in the UK, each facing their own battles when adjusting to a new life, but still have the heart to give and help others.

🌟 It's especially meaningful (and surreal) to be invited to 10 Downing Street to accept the award over Lunar New Year. 🏛🧧 This recognition inspires us to continue our mission of supporting the Hong Kong community and making Greater Manchester an even better place to live. 💪

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey 🫶🏻
