"High Tech to Serve a Healthy and Age-friendly Community Fun Day" set for this Saturday
***************************************************************************************
Co-organised by the Kwai Tsing District Council Festivals Working Group and the Cheung On Women's Association and co-hosted by the Kwai Tsing District Office (K&TDO), the Fun Day aims to introduce innovative technologies to the public, with a view to raising the living standard of the elderly through technology. The event will be held from 2pm to 6.30pm, featuring booths introducing innovative technologies such as a hearing aid mobile app, new blood glucose tests and cognitive training games. Elderly visitors and health-conscious people can join in and download mobile apps on the spot using their smartphones. Specially designed souvenirs are also available on a first-come, first-served basis while stock lasts.
The 16th "Feast for the Elderly", which is a major community event held by the Kwai Tsing District Council every year, will be held at the Kwai Chung Sports Ground hard-surfaced soccer pitches on the same day. Admission is by ticket only.

The Fun Day is an event related to the "Kwai Tsing Dementia Caring Week - Be Smart and Agile", which was launched by the K&TDO under the District-led Actions Scheme, with the theme "Help Prepare the Community to Tackle Surge in Dementia Population". The Caring Week aims to implement community education first, followed by support for patients and their family members.
