Food and Environmental Hygiene Department
This event, co-organised with The Lok Sin Tong Benevolent Society, Kowloon (Lok Sin Tong), was the third volunteer activity held by the FEHD in celebration of the 75th National Day. The Secretary for the Civil Service, Mrs Ingrid Yeung, the Acting Directors of Food and Environmental Hygiene, Dr Christine Wong and Mr Arsene Yiu, together with the Chief Executive of Lok Sin Tong, Ms Alice Lau, attended the activity to show their support.
On the event day, the volunteers and over ten residents of Lok Sin Village came together at the activity room of the village, making handicrafts with festive elements of the National Day. The fun-packed workshop was brimming with a joyous aura. The volunteers then paid home visits in about 20 groups to the residents and distributed gift packs to them.
The enthusiastic colleagues made good use of their spare time to volunteer in this meaningful event, which not only demonstrated their care and concern for society, but also enabled the residents to feel the warmth and support from the civil service volunteer team, thereby further enhancing community cohesion. The FEHD volunteer team will sustain its effort to actively organise and promote various kinds of volunteer activities, and contribute to the society by sharing love and care with the needy.
