Around 180,000 Hong Kongers have arrived in the UK on BNO visas in the past couple of years. Many of them are women and some are now helping to deliver a whole range of public services including work in hospitals, care homes and schools. But large numbers of women are also struggling to get into paid work.
過去幾年,約有18萬名香港人透過BNO簽證來到英國。當中許多人是女性,其中一些人現正協助提供各種公共服務,包括在醫院、護理院和學校工作。然而,仍有大量女性難以找到有薪工作。
