Strengthening the bond between LU and Tuen Mun community with care and innovation

 

On 30 May, about 20 volunteers from Lingnan visited 153 elderly people who live near the LU campus, and distributed gift bags with rice dumplings and necessities such as rice and cooking oil to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival.

 

Partnered with Fu Tai Neighbourhood Elderly Centre of The Neighbourhood Advice-Action Council, the Home Visit - The Elderly in Tuen Mun event is part of the LU Community Service Programme which aims to reinforce the wellbeing and sense of belonging of older adults, particularly those living alone and immobile, by face-to-face interaction, and to offer help to those in need.

 

To promote innovation and entrepreneurship in the New Territories West, the Lingnan Entrepreneurship Initiative held the Re:Imagine NTW Weekend Market at the Gold Coast in Tuen Mun on 13 June hosting some 500 participants from the public.

 

Featuring 19 booths run by LU students and partners, the weekend market served as a platform for them to mingle and display their new products and services to the public, highlighting the enthusiastic support and valuable resources available in the community for these inventors and dealers.
