COMMUNITY INITIATIVES TO SUPPORT SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN HOUSING AND ELDERLY CARE SECTOR
During the year, the Housing Society supported or organised a variety of community projects which gave young people an opportunity to foster connections with the seniors to understand their needs and to apply their knowledge, skills and creativity for the benefit of elderly people. In this way, apart from aspiring the young people to continue to fuel creative ideas for the sustainable development of the housing or elderly care industry, they help prepare the younger generation for a career in the related fields.
Community Health Ambassador Project
The Housing Society has teamed up with The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups to nurture young talents of Senior Care. During the review year, they co-organised a two-month Community Health Ambassador Project to provide training and work opportunities for young people aged 30 or below who would become Community Health Ambassadors in various support services covering social, emotional and household support for senior residents of the Housing Society. The work experiences would enable the young people to get a better understanding of the needs of seniors while equipping them with the skills needed to enter the field of elderly care.
