Community Life
Community and cultural life of French citizens in the UK: an essential fabric to preserve
A rich and dynamic community network
The French community in the United Kingdom benefits from a remarkably dense associative fabric. From Saturday schools to cultural associations, from sports clubs to mutual aid networks, these structures are essential to maintaining our cultural identity while integrating into British society.
Our support for associations
- Relaying community initiatives and events
- Supporting grant applications (STAFE)
- Facilitating links between associations and consular authorities
- Promoting French culture through local events
Education and language
We pay particular attention to French-language education:
- Supporting Saturday schools and bilingual associations
- Advocating for school bursaries
- Promoting the FLAM network (French as a mother tongue)
- Facilitating access to CNED distance learning
