As people age, their muscle mass and strength gradually decline, which affects their mobility and ability to care for themselves. Many elderly individuals reduce physical activity due to fear of injury, further accelerating muscle loss, worsening balance, and reducing opportunities for social interaction. In the long run, this may increase the risk of developing chronic diseases. In response to this, four students from the Connect Ambassador for Community Engagement (Connect ACE) program are collaborating with the Tseung Kwan O Elderly Services Building to launch this service project. We are now recruiting volunteers to become fitness partners for the elderly. Volunteers will encourage the elderly to exercise through games, assist them with training and activities, provide on-site guidance, and help them cultivate a regular exercise routine. Your support will help elderly community members build healthy habits and reduce health risks associated with aging! 隨著年齡的增長，長者的肌肉量和肌力逐漸下降，這會影響他們的行動能力及自理能力。許多長者因害怕受傷，減少了活動，這進一步加速了肌肉流失，導致平衡能力下降和社交生活減少，長遠甚至可能增加發展慢性疾病的風險。 有見及此，四位「社群參與大使計劃」的學生與將軍澳安老服務大樓攜手合作，推出這個服務計劃。現招募義工，成為長者的健身夥伴，透過遊戲鼓勵長者鍛練肌肉，培養他們的運動習慣，長遠減低因老化帶來的健康風險，提升整體身心健康。 Briefing Date: 11 Mar 2026 (Wed) Time: 6 – 7pm Venue: HKUST Campus Service Date: 21 and/or 28 Mar 2026 (Sat) Time: 9:30am – 12nn Gathering Time & Venue: 9:30am @Po Lam # You are required to attend the whole service program, including Briefing, Service & Debriefing.
