     To enhance the promotion of transitional housing projects to the public and to facilitate people in need to make an application, the Housing Bureau (HB) will organise a Transitional Housing Open Day on July 15 (Saturday). A number of operating organisations will set up booths to introduce the living environment, community services, ancillary transport facilities and amenities, etc. of various transitional housing projects. On-site applications are also accepted.
 
     Details of the open day are as follows:
 
Date: July 15 (Saturday)
Time: 10.30am to 4pm
Venue: Multi-purpose Hall of the Henry G Leong Yaumatei Community Centre (60 Public Square Street, Yau Ma Tei)

     Further to the launch of central common application form in June, the HB continues to enhance co-ordination and improve the application procedure, including organising this Open Day to facilitate the public in applying for different transitional housing projects with one-stop arrangement.

Units will be also allocated to the people/families who are inadequately housed or with imminent needs to receive social assistance, etc. More information on transitional housing is at the thematic website
