Doing handmade activities with elderly in Central
Description: With most of Hong Kong’s elderly self-isolating due to the pandemic, their daily lives and personal network have been greatly affected. Through doing traditional handmade activities together, the elderly individuals can use their self experiences and skills to share their life experiences and the history of Central and Western district with the volunteers.
