Shopping with the Elderly in Sham Shui Po

Description: Many of Hong Kong's citizens continue to suffer from the ongoing needs within the community. 1 in 5 of our citizens are living in poverty, surviving on less than HK$4,400 each month. Weakness, coupled with tiredness, forces elderly persons to seek help from others to maintain their daily routine, such as having a walk, buying necessities, etc. Volunteers will show care and support to this vulnerable group by spending time with them in the community. Volunteer roles: Volunteers will receive a short briefing upon arriving at the community centre. Volunteers will learn about how to communicate with elderly persons and how to assist them to shop in a supermarket. Volunteers will accompany the elderly to shop with the supermarket vouchers provided and help carry the items purchased back to their homes. 活動簡介：超過20％的人口生活在貧困中，每月靠少於4,000港元生存。 由於他們許多人生活在恐懼中並且生計受到影響，這些人比以往任何時候都更加迫切需要幫忙。 身體虛弱加上疲倦，迫使長者尋求他人的幫助以維持日常生活，例如散步、購買必需品等。義工會在社區與他們共度時光，向他們表達關懷和支持。 義工角色： 義工抵達中心時，會接受簡短的培訓，學習如何與長者溝通及協助他們在超市購物。 HandsOn會提供超市禮券給長者，義工將陪同長者到超市購物，並幫助將購買的物品帶回長者家中。
