Feeling Festive ✨ Happy Christmas Eve! 🎄 To

Feeling Festive ✨ Happy Christmas Eve! 🎄 Today is the last day of our advent series. We hope you enjoyed learning all about the LCCC! This post is dedicated to all the staff and volunteers who have been working so hard to keep the LCCC and its services going! Thank you so much for your time, effort and for keeping everyone’s spirits up! ❤️ Also, thank YOU for taking the time to read our stories, engage with our content and for contributing to our JustGiving campaign. If you’d like to know more, check the link in our bio!

Looking Ahead ✨ Over the past few weeks, you’

Looking Ahead ✨ Over the past few weeks, you’ve been learning about what we have done at the LCCC – our history, our accomplishments and our contribution to our members and wider society. Today’s post is about the LCCC’s future and our plans for next year. This year was about adapting to the new circumstances and the Centre has kept the support services (such as mental health services and our smartphone workshop) going for those who really need it. Thanks to the volunteers and staff, we have done really well to continue these services. Next year, it’s all about reconnecting with our members and the general public. We have some really cool ideas for big occasions such as Chinese New year, and also for smaller events throughout 2021 🙌 It is thanks to your donation that we are able to even think that these ideas are possible. To continue to support us, and help make more of our ideas a reality, check our JustGiving page ❤️

A Christmas Miracle At the LCCC, we love a good f

A Christmas Miracle At the LCCC, we love a good festive sing-along. Every year, we’d get together to practice and perform in Newport Place, London Chinatown. We’d bring our instruments, lovely singing voices and our Christmas hats to brave the December cold and perform in Chinatown Square ❄️ It’s even more fun when passersby join in too! This year, despite all odds, we have decided to continue the tradition on. Our ensemble of singers and carolers, are gathered together to give you a performance like never before – a true Christmas Miracle! 🎄 Check out the performance on our YouTube page https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-v6eyWSFv8

❤️❤️❤️ Throughout our advent event so

❤️❤️❤️ Throughout our advent event so far, we have shown you the history of the Centre, our contribution to wider society and our clubs, events and members that make us who we are. Because of COVID, events, trips and workshops – anything that allowed us to connect with each other and the wider society have been put on hold. This means two things: (1) the amount of funding and donations that we usually receive have been significantly affected; and (2) our most vulnerable members and families (such as the elderly) have become isolated and are struggling to obtain the social support as easily as they did prior to the pandemic. One reason we are able to keep running is due to our amazing staff and volunteers, who have been working extremely hard to keep the LCCC going and continually provide support services to our visitors when they can. Your donations are also helping! The campaign that @celestialpeach_uk started, helped us to get closer to our goal. The media coverage gave our Centre and campaign exposure, which led to more donations. But most of all, your generosity is what keeps us going. By sharing our campaign and making a donation itself, shows how much you care about the LCCC, our members and Chinatown London ❤️ To continue supporting us and help us reach our goal, share it with your networks and friends and make a contribution!

Reflection At the LCCC, we have a special place i

Reflection At the LCCC, we have a special place in our hearts for the Royal Family. Last year in May, we visited Kensington Palace to explore the beautiful grounds and learn about the birthplace of Queen Victoria 👑 It was also last year that our members were given the chance to learn about traditional, Royal English dinner etiquettes. This demonstration was particularly memorable and eye-opening for our members who attended this event. For some who have never used a knife and fork before, learned so much about how they are used in traditional dinner settings; while for others, they learned so much about the intricacy of dinner etiquette and didn’t know that there were things such as having a specific knife for eating fish 🐟 These trips allow our members, particularly our more elderly ones, to feel more connected to the country they’re residing in. By learning about the Royal Family and what their traditions are, our members are better able to understand and be inspired by these stories 📖 While, at the moment we are unable to hold adventurous day trips like these, our volunteers are working hard to inspire and keep our members connected virtually. To help us, check our JustGiving link 🧡

Little pockets of joy 小笼包 – or pronounced

Little pockets of joy 小笼包 – or pronounced as xiao long bao, is a type of steamed dim sum filled with meat and/or veg and soup. At the LCCC, some of our members had the chance to learn how to make this iconic dish, as well as various other dim sum dishes, from our Dim Sum Making Class. While it certainly got very messy 🙈 our participants had fun mastering the craft of the xiao long bao 🥟 Another great thing is, they were able to take their creations home and eat it afterwards! While we are unable to hold classes, such as the Dim Sum Making class, at the moment, do check our website for any updates. For now, let us know what your favourite dim sum dish is 🥟 We couldn’t have organised affordable classes like this without your support. To help, check our JustGiving link 💕

Team Power 💪 Happy Friday! Can you believe tha

Team Power 💪 Happy Friday! Can you believe that Christmas is just one week away? Crazy! Today, we’re talking about our running team @lcccrunningclub. Established by a group of passionate individuals who want to grow, challenge themselves and get fit with like-minded people. The @lcccrunningclub is not just about running – it is also about community. As a club, they run together and support each other, regardless of whether you are an experienced runner or running for the first. They have also ran to raise money for charities, such as Race for Kids. Check out @lcccrunningclub to see how you can get involved!

Hard at work 🤓 To continue with the theme of s

Hard at work 🤓 To continue with the theme of sharing the story of the LCCC as well as the history of the Centre, its people and Chinatown London, today’s post is about some of the schools we’ve collaborated with to educate its students about our community. This includes schools in our local city, London, to Germany and even all the way to Hong Kong. We are always happy to welcome the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals School. Last year when they visited us during their London tour, we got a chance to meet the student ambassadors and tell them all about Chinatown London and the people around our community. Earlier this year when we were visited by Southbank International School during their study tour. We shared the history of Chinatown – what it was like 40 years ago and what it is like now. Then they joined us for food with our elderly members in our Lunch Club to learn more about this iconic part of London from stories and anecdotes told by our members ✨ We are so happy to be able to contribute to these students’ education and understanding of our community and the Centre. We can’t wait to do this again soon! We’d love to keep these services going, check our JustGiving page in the bio to see how you can help 💛

Expression. History. Tradition. Chinese calligrap

Expression. History. Tradition. Chinese calligraphy is not just writing letters out by hand, but rather, it is an artform. In fact, from early period China, calligraphy was viewed as a supreme and valuable piece of work. How you wrote was just as important as what you wrote. Here, at the LCCC, we aim to not only preserve the culture Chinese calligraphy, but also share this artform so that it can go beyond our little office in London Chinatown. Although it is postponed at the moment, we have Chinese Calligraphy classes, led by Calligraphy master Mr Zhu, to allow anyone who is interested, learn all about the artform. If you want to know more, keep an eye out on our website and/or sign up to our newsletter! Also, during most of our events and charity sales, we offered pieces, beautifully hand-painted live by our expert volunteers/members, to passersby and the general public. The pictures we have here were from our Chinese New Year event @brentcross_sc February this year. How beautiful and amazingly intricate are these? To continue to help us to preserve and share artforms like this, donate to our JustGiving page by clicking on the link in the bio 👏

High Fives for Everyone 🐢 Did you know that at

High Fives for Everyone 🐢 Did you know that at the London CCC, we have our very own dragon boat team – @turtlesCCC 💪 When you join Turtles CCC, you become part of a family – who not only strive to win together (and do actually win), but also empower, motivate and support each other.

Mid-Autumn Festival 🥮 Also known as the ‘Moo

Mid-Autumn Festival 🥮 Also known as the ‘Moon Festival’ is celebrated every year by many East and Southeast Asian people. It is held on the 15th day of the eighth month on the Chinese calendar – around September/October – when it is believed that the moon is at its brightest and fullest 🌕 There are many traditions that are associated with the mid-autumn festival. At the LCCC, we usually go all out – with big get-togethers, massive dinners at our local restaurant in London Chinatown and even get involved with members of the public through our charity sales. This year, we celebrated Mid-Autumn festival joining the LCCA and Street & Co. by having our own London CCC-signed lantern in Chinatown Square🏮 Can you spot which one it is?

Body and Mind 🙏 Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese

Body and Mind 🙏
Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial art recognised around the world as a health-promoting exercise. Due to its low-impact movements that puts minimal stress on muscles, it is typically preferred amongst older age groups. According to the NHS, research has shown that it can reduce stress, improve posture, help with general mobility and increase leg muscle strength for people aged 65 and over.
The nature of Tai Chi also allows anyone and everyone to take part. As a martial art, it was originally practiced for defense training, balancing between yin and yang. Because of this, Tai Chi comes in different styles (with faster style movements as well as slower ones), which makes it accessible to everyone of all ages.
Last year, the LCCC held a public demonstration right in the middle of Chinatown London, led by our Tai Chi masters, Simon and Jenny. We were greeted with huge crowds of people from the general public, who took part to practice and learn all about this ancient martial art.
During our Chinese New Year celebration earlier this year, Simon and his children showed the beauty of Tai Chi at @brentcross_sc. Everyone, from adults to kids, got involved to practice with our Tai Chi masters and had such a blast learning all about this ancient martial art.

Caring for our members 🥰 Adding to the long l

Caring for our members 🥰
Adding to the long list of services we offer to the public, at the LCCC have a clinic to promote good general health and well-being 👏
The London CCC, Catalyst Therapy & Training Company and UK Chinese Medical Services partnered together to launch the Chinese Health and Well-being Clinic in October 2019. UKCMS helps with general medical consultation while Catalyst assists with mental health and well-being advice.
This service offers vital assistance to members of the community. It is completely free of charge.
As the clinic is currently closed, we have a hotline 07464 890902 to support mental well-being patients. This telephone number allow callers to leave a message for our volunteer therapist to call back. If you do make a call, make sure that you leave a clear message and telephone number. Telephone Consultations are carried out on Saturdays and Sundays, (unless it is an emergency) and our therapist can speak Mandarin and Cantonese. 💯 We are only able to continue with services like this because of your help. To continue supporting, click on our JustGiving link in the bio.

❤️ Loved By Our Locals 💛 For Day 11 of ou

❤️ Loved By Our Locals 💛
For Day 11 of our advent series, we’d like to highlight some of the media outlets who have shared our JustGiving campaign so far ❤️
One of the biggest East Asian culture platforms worldwide, @resonatevoices, were one of the first ones to shine light on the Centre, the impact of coronavirus on the community and our campaign.
Our campaign was shared across the globe – the Chinese media outlet Oushinet posted an article and shared it on QQ (a social media that is popular in China).
More recently, we were featured in the latest @timeoutlondon issue on their ‘Love Local’ section, which features some of the iconic restaurants and venues around London. We are also in the latest issue of the Chinese Business Gazette 😎
We really appreciate the media attention we’re getting. It highlights the importance of our work in the community. Additionally, the support from the public so far, from general donations to our collaboration with @celestialpeach_uk and the amazing support from @dumplingshack, shows the need to keep this Centre going, in order to both protect the current environment, preserve the history of the city, and continue to inspire future generations.
However, this publicity also emphasise the urgency of our campaign. Our volunteers have been amazing working with the limited resources that we have so far. But since the resources are limited, we can only provide a limited number of services. We hope to continue helping the general public, offer more services and continue with Chinatown’s ethos that “everyone is welcome” 🌈
