Pine Court Housing hosted the Lunar New Year celebration at Pagoda Arts Community Centre, marking the beginning of the Year of the Snake with a splendid array of festivities and cultural performances.
As one of the leading Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) housing associations, we demonstrated our ongoing commitment to embracing diversity and promoting inclusivity across the Liverpool City Region.
The celebration, held on the evening of 31st January, featured an authentic Lion Dances, martial arts showcases, dance performances, and guests enjoyed a traditional meal, fostering community bonding and cultural appreciation among customers and colleagues. The event was part of our commitment to integrating diverse cultural experiences into our community engagement efforts, ensuring that all customers feel valued and included.

David Brown, Director of Operations for Pine Court Housing Association said:
We are proud to be building a better future for our diverse communities across the Liverpool City Region. It was an absolute pleasure to see our customers and colleagues come together to welcome in the Year of the Snake.
He added:
The event provides an opportunity for us to bring customers together to celebrate our heritage and in a bid to reduce social isolation, with many of our residents living alone.
We also proudly supported the Liverpool City Lunar New Year event, organised by Liverpool Chinese Business Association, with a donation from the Community Development Fund. Attracting over 20,000 people to the city, the free celebrations were a series of vibrant events and activities welcoming the Year of the Snake. This established partnership underscores their dedication to supporting community initiatives that enhance cultural understanding and cohesiveness.
