In Hong Kong, many people are unable to improve their poor living environment due to various constraints in the real world. For example, walls and ceilings are spalling, which affects health, and accidents of elderly people falling down due to failure to meet the home safety standards at home happen from time to time. However, the thresholds and conditions for government subsidies are often more restrictive and the application period is lengthy, so Sunyu Academy hopes to help people with financial difficulties to carry out home maintenance services through the Love Repair Service Program, in order to enhance the safety of the public's home environments. It is our hope that this program will help to alleviate the plight of the public.
This program is designed to provide home repair services for seniors who have safety hazards in their homes. The general repair contents are as follows:
Remarks: Each case will be assessed according to risk and need in order to provide the most appropriate repair service. Referrals must be made by social workers of registered social welfare organizations. Self-applications by individuals will not be accepted.
