What is a CCK Cultural Advisor?

CCK have a strong interest in supporting cultural diversity through education, support, information, and events. We have several CCK cultural advisors who are dedicated community members volunteering their time to support the community in:

  • Raising cultural awareness
  • Reducing isolation
  • Increasing inclusion
  • Bringing the community together to share their rich histories.

If you are looking for people to support your cultural event, have cultural questions or are looking for cultural guidance you can contact one of our Cultural Advisors.

Jacob Solomon

Jacob has many Indian connections in the community and can guide and support organisations, or individuals, who would like support with events around the Indian Culture. He has been part of the CCK Celebrate Culture Group for five years.

“In the community, there are a lot of people in need. If I am able to help them, that is my passion. I want to mingle with all communities – English, African, Chinese – so I have a lot of friends from different communities. In India itself, there are 29 states, which all have different cultures and languages.”
