Women encouraged to take part in community work
Women develop their potential and broaden their horizons through active participation in community programmes, Mrs Patten said.
Speaking at the Kowloon, Western and Eastern District Women's Welfare Clubs spring union lunch today (Monday), Mrs Patten said services of the three clubs "has enriched the lives of many in the districts".
"Your dedicated efforts have set an excellent example for others and encouraged women in the districts to participate in community building programmes," she said.
The three clubs run kindergartens, primary schools and day nurseries to cater to the needs of the young.
They also provide care and attention centres, hostels and recreation centres for the elderly.
This year's event also marked the 40th anniversary of the Western District Women's Welfare Club.
"With your excellent record of community services, I am sure your members will continue to work to develop your services so that the community may further benefit from your generosity and dedication," she said.
