The story
BBHK was founded in 1959 by three British Christians— James Milner Fraser, Rev. Vernon N. J. Lowis, and Alfred Deans Peggs—who established the 1st Company at Union Church Hong Kong and the 2nd Company at the YMCA. Five years later, the 3rd Company was introduced to local Chinese children, and began spreading to the local Chinese churches. The Hong Kong Council of the Boys' Brigade was established in 1962 and was renamed The Boys' Brigade, Hong Kong in 1985.
In 1984, BBHK introduced its Non-Uniformed Group Services and secured government funding to establish a Children and Youth Centre. In 1986, it expanded its membership to include girls, and formed its first mixed-gender company, the 39th Company, within the Children and Youth Centre. To cater to the special needs of some youth groups, BBHK also established a company within a sheltered workshop and hostel for individuals with mental disabilities, introducing a new section called the Integrated Section.
In the 21st century, BBHK experienced significant expansion and growing social recognition, with an increasing number of companies and members.
