Hong Kong Welcome Hub

The North East Migration Partnership (NEMP) is working with the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities to coordinate the welcome programme for new arrivals from Hong Kong who are settling in the North East.

We have developed this Welcome Hub to provide links to services and access to resources that may provide assistance.

We have worked with our partners to develop a Hong Kong North East Welcome Guide to support the integration of new arrivals in the region. The welcome guide is available in both English and Cantonese.
