Kut O Association
The Kut-O Chinese Association is a non-profit making organisation and it is a registered charity (registration no. 289938) to provide information and assistance to the Chinese community within the Kent area. The association was initially setup by a group of UK residents from the island of Kut-O (also known as Kat O) in the New Territories of Hong Kong on 30th October 1983. A dedicated team of volunteers is responsible for running the association and the membership has grown to over 200. The association has successfully setup and continues to run a Chinese school within its premises. Social functions are also organised by the association throughout the year for the community. [2]
