Towngas collaborated with the Hong Kong Housing Society (HKHS) again this year on the “Care for Parents” event, hosting a party both online and offline to celebrate Father’s and Mother’s Day with over 400 seniors. The party was held on 11 June 2022 at the hall of Cheerful Court, an HKHS Senior Citizen Residences Scheme project, and was broadcasted live online. The Towngas Volunteer Service Team, the HKHS team and our star volunteers prepared a wide range of activities to interact with the elderly and send them our best wishes and gratitude.
In order to let the elderly have a memorable and heart-warming Parents’ Day, we prepared a variety of activities for the participants, including a knee exercise session led by Professor Amy Fu, Peter Hung Professor in Pain Management, Associate Head of the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, to teach the elderly how to maintain healthy knee joints. Celebrity volunteers Mr Henry Lo Chun-shun and Ms Anita Tam Suk-ying gave a singing performance and also joined the hosts in a game session with the seniors to spread the message of gas safety. There was also a sing-along where guests, seniors and volunteers mingled and shared a great time together.
Last year, Towngas and the HKHS jointly organised the Parents’ Day party for the first time, which was very well-received. This year, we decided to host the party again so that seniors living in different districts could join it online or offline, enjoying the festive atmosphere while keeping social distance amid the epidemic.
