In 2014, 14% of the total Hong Kong population, i.e. 1,070,000 people, were aged 65 and above. This number is projected to increase to 36%, i.e.2,580,000 by 2064. With a rapidly ageing population, ensuring the adequate provision of quality care services for the elderly has become an important priority for Po Leung Kuk.
With the rapid aging of our population, the demand for services for the elderly have been increasing. Po Leung Kuk in the eighties began to formulate development plans for elderly services. We accord high priority to develop and strengthen services for elderly people. Our mission is to ensure elderly under our care can live a healthy and enjoyable life by enabling them with different programmes and activities, respecting their individual needs and looking after them with utmost care and concern.
