The outbreak of COVID-19/Novel Coronavirus is affecting vulnerable groups, including persons with disabilities or chronic illnesses and the elderly. During this difficult time, The Hong Kong Society for Rehabilitation has been working with many companies and charitable organisations to alleviate the financial burdens brought by the soaring prices of epidemic protective gears. We have distributed the supplies to persons with disabilities or chronic illnesses. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to those companies and charitable organisations for their generosity.
The suspension of our services did not stop us from providing services to those in need. We have been engaging with our service users in different ways, and have offered online classes and consultation services through social media to stay connected and support our services users.
