Visiting Elderly Living Alone in Housing Estates
The elderly living alone comprise is one of the most vulnerable communities in Hong Kong. To show our love and care, Henderson Land’s Chairman, Dr Lee Ka Kit, Peter, personally visited elderly individuals living alone in Tai Hang Sai Estate in September 2021. During the visit, we got to know more about their living conditions and the challenge of mask shortages due to the pandemic. On that account, our volunteers from Hang Yick and Well Born prepared anti-pandemic packs with mask supplies and subsequently distributed the packs to the elderly individuals living in the Estate.
