Yesterday's Fusion Youth Club session was full of collective joy as we welcomed our new volunteer.

The girls played the "Pursuit of Happiness" board game and showed incredible growth. Unlike three months ago, they deeply engaged with their "life choices" and long-term goals—a perfect stepping stone for our upcoming Youth X programme.

A major win was J; despite initial hesitation, she handled the "tough stuff" to join in, proudly noting she "became a president at 14"! Everyone left with lifted spirits and stronger connections.

Today's STW session on self-employment with Ivy Lau was a wonderful success. We hosted 6 participants in a cosy sofa setup to encourage an open, supportive chat.

Ivy was brilliant; she started by listening to everyone's needs and tailored her advice perfectly, balancing complex topics like marketing and entrepreneurship with relatable real business cases from other entrepreneurs and business partners.

The group felt deeply encouraged, gaining practical skills for setting up a business. Engagement was so high that the session overran slightly, with participants eagerly asking to stay connected with Ivy.

Worried about working in the UK? Knowing the 'rules' is key! ⚖️

Many Hong Kong people moving to the UK worry about their rights after signing a contract, feeling like they have to simply follow whatever the employer says. In reality, understanding your legal protections isn't about looking for conflict—it's about having peace of mind, avoiding uncertainty, and building the confidence to settle into your new environment.

With significant changes to UK employment law arriving in 2026, do you know how these updates affect you?. If you have questions about your contract or aren't sure how to speak to your boss, our Steps Towards Work programme has invited Chris Lake from Citizens Advice to provide a simple, jargon-free guide to the UK workplace.

🌟 Workshop Highlights:

Understanding Your Rights and Employer Duties: A clear look at your statutory rights, including holiday, sick pay, and how the 2026 updates will change the rules for employees.

Professional Communication: Learn the professional way to raise questions or concerns at work, and find out which organisations (like Citizens Advice) can provide free, independent support.

Handling Disputes: If your rights are breached or a disagreement arises, learn the steps you can take and where to find legal or third-party help.

Live Q&A: An open session to ask any specific questions you have about employer relations, overtime, or workplace culture.

By understanding the "rules of the game," you can reduce workplace anxiety and start your UK career journey with confidence.

📅 Event Details

Date: Friday 30 January 2026
Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Venue: The Plessey Centre, Marconi Drive, Beeston, NG9 1NX
Guest Speaker: Chris Lake (Citizens Advice)
Cost: Free to attend
Reservation: PM or send a WhatsApp message to Anthony on 7383549913

"Every step—big or small—is a step forward."

Join us for a coffee and a chat, and ensure you are moving forward in the UK workplace with total confidence!.
