Project Background
Hong Kong Cancer Fund has been offered a unique opportunity by a generous supporter of a 7,300 sq.ft space in a converted industrial building in Kwai Chung at a subsidized rent. This will allow us to complete our support network with a CancerLink centre.
With the new CancerLink centre in Kwai Chung, we are able to expand our support network to reach a much neglected and underprivileged area in Hong Kong that has increasingly growing demand on cancer support services.
Objectives
The objectives are to provide free services with professional carers who help clients manage the physical, emotional, psychological and social challenges brought about by a cancer diagnosis.
By offering a wide range of free support and rehabilitation programme, our goal is to empower individuals so that their cancer journey is as comforting, informed and stress-free as possible.
Service Target
People diagnosed with cancer and cancer survivors, and their carer and family members.
Centre setup Progress
- New centre fit out works are 80 completed.
- Cancer support service operation will be soft launched in December 2016.
