Community Services

Social Service Project

Community service is one of our highlighted projects of the year. In community service, we will collaborate with other St. John divisions and hold 2 -3 activities days for various disadvantaged groups such as elderly, ethics minorities, single-parented childrenand mentally handicapped persons. The organizing committee consists of 8 committees (4 from each division). The organizing committee has to plan for all the details of the service, for instance, task games and maybe site visit (e.g. museum).

The projects can help cadets nurture a willingness to help others and put their pledge and mission in action.

Flag Selling & Crowd Control

Upon public request, Cadets will assist charitable organizations in flag selling and community projects. Crowd Control service will also be provided if necessary.

Health Promotion Day

Hong Kong St. John Ambulance Brigade to provide residents in the districts is suitable for all ages and social strata involved in the home safety, first aid and health promotion day. Activities include health checks, display panels, first-aid demonstrations, game booths, ambulance exhibitions, stage performances, first-aid equipment displays and health talks. About 300 members from Cadet Command assist in the implementation of this activity.

Elderly Visit and Medical Check-up Service

To enhance the cadets concerned about the community, monthly visits with medical check-up services for the elderly are organized.  Pre-training including communication skills and blood pressure measurement is conducted.  Health messages are also presented to the frail elderly during the visits.
