Secretary for Labour and Welfare shares CDF participants' hostel experience

A group of CDF participants joined the 2-day and 1-night Y-Loft Experience Programme of the Youth Square in March in which they were given free accommodation at the hostel and had the chance to take part in various cultural and job-related activities. On the first day of the programme, Mr Matthew CHEUNG, Secretary for Labour and Welfare, joined the participants to share the fun of making Easter eggs.

The 24 participants, aged between 14 and 18 studying Form 2 to Form 5, joined the activity through project operators including the Baptist Oi Kwan Social Service, the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Yu Mak Yuen Integrated Services Centre and the SKH All Saints' Middle School. The programme not only provided them with a valuable opportunity to experience hostel life but also enhanced their understanding of hostel facilities and management.
