We are deeply grateful for your loyal support as we continue to expand our services in the community. This was our 30th year and we have reached new major milestones in our mission to provide seamless cancer supportive care.
We launched the new Cancer Fund Jockey Club Support Centre in Kwai Chung to reach even more people in Kowloon and New Territories West in June 2017, and re-opened our Cancer Fund Support Centre in Central. In the last year, we had more than 112,000 visits at our five support centres.
We were happy to serve 4,086 new clients and offer them a new approach of an array of multi-disciplinary services through our specialists such as Clinical Psychologists, Dietitians and Art Therapists. Our Wellness programmes keep growing with the addition of videos on our YouTube channel and more than 51,000 people attended our classes.
As we look toward the new year, we are excited about our new Women’s cancer centre, the first free care centre in Hong Kong that offers services for the needs of women who are experiencing breast and gynaecological cancers and their families. As we are expanding our services, we face an increasingly challenging fundraising environment. Our clients and their families need your support and care more than ever to sustain our programmes.
I want to say a heartfelt thank you to all of our loyal supporters, staff and volunteers who allow us the privilege of helping more people with free services and to remain leaders in cancer supportive care in Hong Kong. Thank you for helping us make our vision a reality so no one faces cancer alone.
