Our Vision: Why we exist?

We exist because we believe that we must not lose sight of our collective heritage—our culture, our language, our affection and support for each other, and our sense of a community—while also making a home in the UK.

Our Mission: What we do?

Our mission is to mobilise our community in the UK to transform their lives and revive and preserve their heritage. We uphold our vision by providing integrated people-centred programs and community services to help the community members meet their socio-economic needs, intellectual ambitions and cultural integrity. We affirm the integrity of the community and seek to further enhance the community’s civic participation in their country of domicile, the United Kingdom.

Our Objectives

    • Develop and promote a community-centred support system
    • Work towards preserving the Blin language, culture and historical heritage

    • Promote excellence in education by supporting children, young people and adults
    • Enhance social transformation through networking, partnership and collaborative research
    • Connect asylum seekers and refugees with local services to ensure access to basic rights and enhance integration
