Funding to Support the Integration of Hong Kong Arrivals (North West)

Voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations can apply for a share of £1.4 million in funding for projects and activities that support Hong Kong British National (Overseas) status holders and their dependents to integrate into Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and the Liverpool City Region.

Grants of between £20,000 and £40,000 are available to help organisations support new arrivals to access services and advice, provide support to find housing and employment, and ensure that emotional wellbeing needs are met.

Priority will be given to projects targeting under-represented groups including the elderly, children & young people, LGBTQ+, and people with disabilities.

The funding is made available by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities through the Hong Kong BN(O) Welcome Programme which closes to applications on the 31st March 2023.
