VOLUNTEERS FROM SOCIAL GROUPS TO GIVE BLOOD

A blood donation campaign has been organised by the Yau Ma Tei

District Community Work Office.

Twenty volunteers from several social service groups sponsored by

the Work Office will give blood at the Tsim Sha Tsui Kai Fong Welfare

Association on Saturday (January 20).

Also giving blood will be Mr. Yeung Wai-tsang, District Community

Officer (Yau Ma Tei).

In another community project, a good-will visit to residents of

the Cheshire Rome in Chung Hom Kok Road has been organised by the Western

District Community Work Office.

Thirty volunteers from the Chun Yee Club will take part in this visit

on Sunday (January 21).

The Cheshire Home was founded in 1961 for the aged and chronically ill.

During the visit, the volunteers will play records of Chinese opera

songs and distribute gifts to the old people.
