Description
To provide support for the elderly living in remote and rural areas, AS Watson Group’s volunteer team joined forces with Hong Kong Young Women’s Christian Association to run the Network Village Network Love programme. Over the course of three months, volunteers from FORTRESS Pro-Team and PARKnSHOP Hong Kong partnered with dietitians and pharmacists from Watsons Hong Kong to serve over 250 elders. A host of activities were held, including workshops on how to use a smartphone, supermarket tours, health talks, check-ups and consultations, as well as home visits.
