CASE STUDY 案例分享

Cultivating an Environment to Promote Holistic Wellness
締造身心健康的居住環境

The CES Team is devoted to enhancing the physical and mental
well-being of tenants. Mutual support groups with themes such as
emerging sports, fitness, and healthy eating, were established at
different rental estates to encourage better health management and
exercise habits through community-based peer support.

To deepen public understanding and knowledge about mental
wellness, we organised 45 programmes in 20 rental estates during
our Positive Mind Happy Life - Mental Wellness Month, engaging
more than 1,800 participants. These included mental health talks
co-organised with the Integrated Community Centre for Mental
Wellness, along with booths and wellness workshops designed to
raise awareness about the various aspects of mental wellness. The
CES Team also facilitated early identification of mental health needs,
and introduced relevant community resources for timely assistance. Participants gained greater
mental health awareness and better understanding of available community resources.

With the generous sponsorship from the Lee Hysan Foundation, the CES Team continued to partner
with the Hong Kong Arts Centre and New Life Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association to develop Cho
Yiu Chuen into a Mind-friendly Estate. As part of this initiative, three mural paintings were created,
providing a mind-friendly and peaceful ambience in the estate. Additionally, tenants were trained as
Mindful Art Ambassadors to promote mutual care. These ambassadors actively support the community
by decorating Elderly Persons’ Flats with colourful door curtains, providing support services like
hair dyeing for elderly singletons and doubletons, and spreading wellness messages within the
neighbourhood through wellness hubs and community drama performances, all contributing to a more
supportive living environment.
「房協友里」團隊致力提升出租屋邨居民的身心健康。他們在不同的出租屋邨設立了以新興運動、健身和健康飲食
等主題的互助小組，旨在透過社區的朋輩支持，鼓勵居民培養更良好的健康管理和運動習慣。

為加深公眾對心理健康的理解和認識，我們在「友里•好心情 — 精神健康月」期間，為二十個出租屋邨舉辦四十五
場活動，吸引了一千八百多名參加者參與。這些活動包括與精神健康綜合社區中心合辦的心理健康講座，以及舉
辦攤位和健康工作坊，旨在提升居民對心理健康各個方面的認識。「房協友里」團隊還協助公眾識別早期心理健康
需求，並介紹了相應的社區資源以提供及時援助。參與者增加對心理健康的認識，亦加深了對現有社區資源的了
解。

在利希慎基金的慷慨贊助下，「房協友里」團隊繼續與香港藝術中心和新生精神康復會合作，將祖堯邨打造成一個
心靈友善屋邨。作為這項計劃的一部分，我們創作了三幅壁畫，為屋邨打造一個心靈友善和平靜的氛圍。此外，
租戶也接受培訓，成為「心澄大使」，以促進相互關懷。這些大使積極支援社區，如透過於長者單位裝飾色彩繽紛
的門簾、為獨居或雙老長者提供如染髮的支援服務，以及透過心澄加油站和社區劇場在區內宣揚健康信息，積極
支持社區，從而營造互相支持的生活環境。
