New hostel and day centre open for mentally handicapped

It is a happy day for the mentally handicapped people with the opening of two new facilities at the heart of a busy community where they can live and learn.

The Hong Kong Association for the Mentally Handicapped's Fung Tak Day Activity Centre in Fung Tak Estate and Tung Tau Hostel in Tung Tau Estate were officially opened today (Wednesday) by Mrs Patten. "Tung Tau Hostel and Fung Tak Centre will change the lives of many people,' she said.

Mrs Patten thanked the residents of Tung Tau and Fung Tak Estates for welcoming the staff and residents into their communities.

"We all know there were misunderstandings at the start, but they are behind us now. Both the hostel and the day activity centre are working smoothly.

"Your presence here shows the warm relations that now exist between the Association and the residents of the two estates, and we look forward to many years as good neighbours," she told the gathering at the opening ceremony.
