Our pledge:

Raise awareness and promote these charities at all events.

The BCCC has been the primary hub for the Chinese community in Birmingham and the West Midlands since their inception over 40 years ago.
Initially driven to provide practical support as well as companionship and a meeting centre, where nothing existed, they remain a community anchor for Chinese people, especially those socially isolated through age, caring responsibilities and language barriers.
However, these days they also organise more social activities to engage families with children, thereby enabling British-born Chinese to stay in touch with their roots through interaction with the older generations.
​
They also strive to build bridges between the Chinese and the wider community through cultural activities, such as traditional dance and singing, Chinese language workshops as well as ESOL classes, and networking events for businesses wishing to develop trade links with China.
​
They are actively engaged in promoting wellbeing through body massage and facials, and health through regular activities such as stretch & tone exercise, walking, table tennis, badminton and Tai Chi.
​
Prevention is better than cure, therefore they support people to look after their mental, emotional and physical health.
