Here, I found a home

究竟在这里找到家

Unlike London, Manchester or Liverpool, Leeds' Chinese community has not been featured in many mainstream media or historical archives. Although the past of their settlement is cloudy, there is much to be discovered of their achievements, struggles, and the people within the community. Even with a fallen Chinatown, the Chinese of Leeds soldier on in efforts to promote their culture, and reduce isolation in the Chinese elderly. 

Before diving into the stories of the Leeds Chinese community, discover the history of Chinese diaspora in Britain as researched by the British Museum for their China: Journey to the East exhibition in 2008 in the document below.
