image
In response to the challenges and opportunities arising from the city’s ageing population, The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust has initiated and funded the Jockey Club Age-friendly City Project (“JCAFC Project”) since 2015. The Jockey Club Age-friendly City Partnership Scheme (“the Scheme”) was launched under the JCAFC Project in 2018 to encourage different community sectors in building an age-friendly city that can cater for the needs of all ages. Application of the Scheme 2022 was closed on 30 December 2022. After assessment by the Judging Panel, the results will be announced and the Award Presentation Ceremony will be held in Q2 2023. Please stay tuned. For details of the Scheme, please visit www.jccitypartnership.hk.
