Hello! We’re besea.n - Britain’s East and South East Asian Network.
We are a community focused, volunteer-led organisation with a mission to empower, educate and embrace East and South East Asian people - and their allies! - in the UK.
Our advocacy spotlights ESEA experiences through our online platforms, research and community events - providing a safe space for sharing knowledge, creating joy and fostering connections.
Our vision is one where our communities are seen and supported in all spaces. That’s why we’ve launched ESEA Heritage Month, celebrated every year in the month of September. It’s a jam packed programme of events to celebrate, acknowledge and learn about the incredible ways in which our communities have helped to shape the UK.
We are a small but perfectly formed team of volunteers and we rely on your support. Stick around to find out more about our work, how to donate to our cause and sign up for our newsletter. Also, don’t forget to follow us on social media and continue spreading #ESEAJoy!
