Neighbourhood Elderly Centre & Elderly Centre
Background
Neighbourhood Elderly Centre (NEC) is a type of community support services at community level to provide a range of comprehensive services to enable elderly persons to stay active in the community and contribute to the society, as to lead them a healthy, respectful and dignified life. NECs also collaborate with the District Elderly Community Centre (DECC) to involve the public in building up a caring community.
Our Services
We aimed at setting up a community-neighborhood interactive platform. Through a wide range of supporting services and a variety of group activities, the elderly can improve their mental health status, facilitate the communication between peers and exploit the mutual help within their neighborhoods.
Besides, the centers cooperate with district service units to be the communication bridge and let our senior citizens continue serving the community with love and care.
