SERVICES FOR THE ELDERLY IN SAU MAU PING
A dance party will be held at the Kwun Tong Community Centre on
Saturday (October 20) to raise funds to finance entertainment programmes
for elderly people in the Sau Mau Ping area.
The function has been organised by the Sau Mau Ping (South) Estate
Community Work Office of the Social Welfare Department and other welfare
agencies in the district.
One of the regular programmes run by the office for the elderly
is a social gathering which takes place every Tuesday afternoon from
3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Estate Welfare Building. Activities at the
gathering include games, tea parties, observational visits and picnics.
"These activities involve youth volunteers in long term service
to help elderly people and also create a better working relationship among
the local agencies," said Mr. Wong King-tong, Warden of Kwun Tong Community
Centre.
