Shui Chuen O Day Activity Centre and Hostel Opening cum 40th Anniversary Photo Contest Prize Presentation

A celebration of the opening of our Shui Chuen O Day Activity Centre and Hostel was held together with the prize presentation ceremony of our 40th anniversary photo contest in Shui Chuen O Unit on August 24th. The event was officiated by Ms. Maggie Leung, District Social Welfare Officer (Shatin), Social Welfare Department and attended by representatives of social service units in the neighbourhood and our family representatives. In her welcome address, Ms. Esther Kwong, Chairperson of the Board of Directors, called upon us to make good use of our experience and strengths so that the service can keep abreast of the times and the service users can live a rewarding life, with their dignity being respected, their rights being protected, their quality of life being enhanced and their potentials being utilized.

 

The opening celebration of the unit included a tour of its environment and facilities as well as a sharing by service users’ family members. In the prize presentation ceremony of the 40th anniversary photo contest, the winning, first runner-up and second runner-up awards of the open section, disabled section and parent and child section were presented to the awardees. The award-winning entries were exhibited together with the rest of the shortlisted entries.

 

“Home is the place where one can always take refuge from a storm, where one can reclaim comfort and forgiveness.” Like what is expressed by the lyrics of the song in the video shown during the ceremony, the venue was overwhelmed by a warm home-like atmosphere. We hope that all of our service users can live a relaxed and happy life and have progress day by day.
