Help us tell the stories of Filipinos in the UK

Hi! I’m Liezel Longboan, founder and director of Tinig UK, a non-profit community website serving Filipinos in Britain. My family and some friends are running the Green Park Reading 3K mini-marathon so Tinig UK can continue to tell the untold stories of UK Filipinos (estimated around 300,000).

Our work's impact

Founded in 2020, we have been giving voice and visibility to Filipinos in the UK. Here’s a small list of the wonderful things we have achieved in the last four years, thanks to the contributions of our volunteers. Learn more about our impact here.

We have trained and mentored at least 25 interns - mostly from ethnic minority backgrounds - who have learned skills in journalism, marketing, web and graphic design.

We organised a careers event for Filipino nurses in 2024, bringing together new and experienced nurses to share experiences on how to navigate and succeed in their profession.

We were the first news outlet to raise the issue of the lack of robust data about Filipino nurses in the NHS during Covid. We were also the first to cover the inclusion of the Filipino ethnic category in the NHS staff record.

We have legal advice and parenting columns that specifically address the concerns of the Filipino community.

We have been featuring Filipino authors, artists, businesses, and events, celebrating our culture, and making them visible to a wider audience.

Help us to continue bringing diverse voices in the UK media.

Help us to continue making the UK media diverse and inclusive. Your donation will allow us to mentor journalism students from ethnic minority backgrounds, write authoritative articles about issues that matter to our community, and offer important advice on topics needed by our readers.

Maraming salamat! Thank you for your support!
