Elderly Housing and Care
長者房屋及照護
During the review period, the Housing Society continued to focus on
the housing needs of the elderly in response to changing
demographic trends in Hong Kong.
As estimated by the Census and Statistics Department, from the end
of 2014 to the end of 2015, the number of people over the age of
60 grew from 1,565,200 to 1,632,700, a dramatic increase of 67,500.
This trend, according to the Department, will be most pronounced
over the next 20 years.
As an organisation with a social mission, we have been meeting the
housing, healthcare and social needs of the elderly with programmes
such as our Ageing-in-Place scheme in our rental estates, Senior
Citizen Residences Scheme for the middle-income elderly and, as of
this year, The Tanner Hill project for elderly people who aspire to a
more quality lifestyle.
These programmes cater for the housing needs of Hong Kong’s senior
citizens at all socio-economic levels.
年內，房協繼續專注於長者的房屋需要，
以應對香港人口結構轉變的趨勢。
據政府統計處估計，由二零一四年底至二零
一五年底，年逾六十歲的人口由
1,565,200
人激增
67,500
至
1,632,700
人，而這趨勢於
未來二十年將更顯著。
房協以服務社會為己任，為照顧長者的
住屋、醫療及社交需要而推行不同的計劃，
包括在房協出租屋邨的「樂得耆所」居家
安老計劃、為中等收入長者提供的「長者
安居樂」住屋計劃，以及年內推出為追求較
高生活質素的長者而設的「雋悅」項目。
這些計劃照顧到香港各社會及經濟階層長者
的房屋需求。
