City Partnership Scheme
INTRODUCTION
The Jockey Club Age-friendly City Partnership Scheme 2022 (“the Scheme”) has been launched to continue to encourage different community sectors in building an age-friendly city that can cater for the needs of all ages. Under the Scheme, companies or organisations in different sectors which have adopted one or more age-friendly practice(s) in their businesses or operations, or provided product(s) or service(s) catering for the needs of elderly people, will be recognised.
The objectives of the Scheme are:
- To encourage stakeholders across various sectors — including businesses, government departments, and social enterprises — to collaborate in fostering an age-friendly culture and community environment, and to promote joint efforts and innovation
- To provide valuable resources and information to older adults, facilitating their active ageing in the community
- To arouse public awareness of the importance of building an age-friendly city, promote the adoption of age-friendly practices, and foster an inclusive society
