Centre Background

Our Centre was established in November 1990. Mr Chan Wai Kwan (陳偉君先生), Assistant Director of Social Welfare Department, attended our opening ceremony in September 1991. Mr Chan Lap (陳立先生), our Permanent Advisor, donated HK$150,000 to fulfill the wish of his mother, Mrs Chan Lai Jeong Kiu. To acknowledge his generous donation, our Centre was named as "Lok Sin Tong Chan Lai Jeong Kiu Social Centre for the Elderly". In 2014, our Centre was upgraded to "Lok Sin Tong Chan Lai Jeong Kiu Neighbourhood Elderly Centre” in order to enhance the supporting services to elderly and carers.
