YWCA is proud to have received dual accolades in “The 7th Hong Kong Ten Outstanding Community Services Award” presented by Lions Clubs International District 303 – Hong Kong & Macao, China. The two recongised projects - “Smart Hub - Telecare Project for Rural Villagers of North District” (“Smart Hub”) and “Muppet Show - Healing with Pleasure” (“Muppet Show”) – focused respectively on physical and mental well-being of the elderly, exemplified the Association’s holistic and thoughtful approach to elderly care. 

“Smart Hub”, implemented by Ellen Li District Elderly Community Centre, delivered video consultations and medication distribution to seniors living in rural North District. By leveraging tele-medicine technology, it narrowed the healthcare gap between urban and rural areas, enabling seniors to access timely and appropriate care.

“Muppet Show”, developed by Wan Wah Care and Attention Home for the Elderly, trained elderly participants in muppet crafting and theatre production. Through interactive performances, it promoted the philosophy of "ageing with joy", whilst fostering intergenerational engagement and creative expression.

YWCA sincerely thanks its dedicated service teams for their efforts in addressing community needs, and extends its gratitude to the organiser and all sectors of society for the continued support. The Association will expand the service to benefit the vulnerable populations.
