Building Unity, Preserving Heritage

The Cameroonian Community of Greater Manchester (CCGM) is a non-profit organisation bringing together Cameroonians living across Greater Manchester. Our mission is simple but powerful to unite our community under one umbrella for the sake of our children, and to keep our cultural heritage alive for generations to come.

Our Story

The CCGM was first founded in 2005, born out of a shared desire to connect, support one another, and celebrate our roots in a new and diverse city. In the early years, the community faced challenges differences in opinion and limited structure made it hard to realise our full vision.

For many years, progress was slow. But in 2023, a turning point came when the then-president made the bold decision to step back and form a transitional bureau. This new leadership team was tasked with rebuilding trust, reorganising the community, and putting in place solid structures to promote unity, cohesion, and collective growth.

A New Chapter

Since that moment of renewal, the Cameroonian Community of Greater Manchester has been on a journey of transformation. We are rebuilding stronger foundations guided by transparency, inclusivity, and shared purpose.

Our focus is not just on today, but on the future. We want to create spaces where our children can learn our language, embrace our values, and experience our culture firsthand. Through this, we aim to preserve the beauty of our Cameroonian heritage, even as we thrive in a multicultural Manchester.

What We Do

Our Vision

At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to unity. We believe that when we come together across generations and backgrounds, we create a stronger, more vibrant community for everyone.

Together, we are not just preserving our heritage we are building a legacy.
