Towngas was listed among 36 recognised companies/organisations under the inaugural SportsHour Company Scheme and one of four companies/organisations recognised under the “CO-FIT” Best Practice Showcase. The accolades underscore the affirmation enjoyed by Towngas for its efforts and performance in establishing an exercise-friendly work environment and advocating for staff participation in sports.
Throughout COVID-19, Towngas has been flexible in the ways we carried out sports-related volunteering services. For instance, we sponsored the sporting equipment purchases of charitable organisations and organised online charity walks for our staff to take part in. By continuing to connect with the community through sports under the “new normal”, we are able to establish a healthy living culture and shoulder our corporate social responsibility.
Towngas has consistently invested great efforts into promoting staff participation in sports. Through organising various kinds of recreational and sports activities, we foster work-life balance of our staff as well as create bonding among colleagues.

In response to the epidemic, Towngas moved offline activities online, allowing instructors to continue offering classes for staff on sports such as yoga and Pilates.
Long-distance running is one of the annual flagship activities of Towngas’ Sports & Recreation Club. Impacted by COVID-19, the event took the form of an online run, attracting over 220 colleagues to participate.
