Scheme Mechanism and Awards

The Scheme is composed of two parts:

 

Part I – Jockey Club Age-friendly City Partner sticker

All companies, government departments, and social enterprises registered and operating in Hong Kong, are welcome to join the Scheme. Participating companies or organisations need to implement at least ONE age-friendly practice or activity, or offer product(s) or service(s) catering to the needs of older adults, under any of the eight domains of an age-friendly city listed in the Application Form.

A set of certificates and scheme stickers will be distributed to all eligible companies or organisations in order to recognise their participation and contribution in promoting an age-friendly culture in Hong Kong. The stickers can be displayed in their offices, shops, branches, on their websites, publicity materials, and social media pages.

Part II – Special Awards

To recognise companies or organisations which demonstrate outstanding performance in promoting an age-friendly culture, six Special Awards have also been designed under the Scheme.

The Judging Panel for the Special Awards will comprise representatives from government, academia, and relevant professional sectors. They will evaluate participants' performance based on the major criteria below. The weighting for each judging criteria varies depending on the nature of the awards: 

  • Creativity and innovation 
  • Social impact 
  • Resources devotion 
  • Sustainability of the project 

Moreover, members of the public are welcome to vote for “My Favourite City Partnership  Scheme Award” on the Scheme’s online platform.

All participating companies and organisations will be invited to the Award Presentation Ceremony. The ceremony aims to recognise the joint efforts and the on-going commitment of the participating companies and organisations to building an age-friendly city in Hong Kong. All Special Awards will be presented in the ceremony.
