感謝 DBS 星展香港 及 #星展基金會 推出「IMPACTable」（同桌同餐 星展隨行）活動，透過 2024 年度星展基金會獎勵金，全力支持 The Project Futurus 與 @鍾菜・鍾廚 聯合研發 9 道符合國際吞嚥障礙飲食標準（IDDSI） 的特色照護食餐膳，讓長者即使面對吞嚥或咀嚼困難，也能安全進食，重拾與家人「同桌同餐」的溫馨時光 🧓👵
🍴今次午宴邀請了多位重量級嘉賓蒞臨支持，包括香港特別行政區政務司副司長卓永興先生、勞工及福利局副局長何啟明先生、稻香集團營運總監鍾凌峰先生，為軟餐發展注入鼓舞力量。
👥來自循道衛理中心 的鍾生鍾太和照顧者明珠以及媽媽亦一同品嚐軟餐菜式並分享親身感受，讓「共融餐桌」更添溫度與真誠。
💬 現場設有專題對談，聚焦「共融餐飲」、「長者照護創新」與「跨界合作」等議題
。The Project Futurus 創辦人暨行政總裁 Queenie 亦有參與其中，講述她推動軟餐文化與社會創新的經歷，並探討星展基金會如何助力社企擴大社會影響力。
全球包括香港也正在面對人口老化的問題，根據香港政府統計處預測，到2043年，每三位港人便有多於一位為長者。高齡社會的來臨，促使我們必須提前部署，打造更具包容力的生活環境。「促進銀髮經濟工作組」就五大範疇提出30項措施，包括：促進「銀色消費」、發展「銀色產業」、推廣「銀色品質保證」、推廣「銀色財務及保障安排」、釋放「銀色生產動力」——而這些政策要真正落實，需要政府、社會與商界三方攜手，共同實現 🤝
The Project Futurus 將繼續以創新精神推動軟餐發展，連結各界力量，為長者創造更有尊嚴的飲食體驗。
📍想親身感受「軟餐也有滋味」？歡迎你與家人親臨 @鍾菜・鍾廚 體驗這份用心與溫暖！
A heartfelt gratitude to DBS Hong Kong and DBS Foundation for launching the “IMPACTable” initiative and supporting The Project Futurus and Tao Heung’s Chung’s House through DBS Foundation Grant 2024 to promote an inclusive dining culture. We co-developed 9 care food and softmeal dishes that comply with the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) — meals that are specially designed for older adults with chewing or swallowing difficulties to restore the joy of eating and encourage families to share a meal together 🧓👵
🍴We were honoured to have several special guests with us, including Mr. Cheuk Wing-hing, GBS, JP, Deputy Chief Secretary for Administration, HKSAR Government who officiated at the event.; Mr. Ho Kai Ming, JP , Under Secretary for Labour and Welfare, HKSAR Government; Mr. Chris Chung, Director of Operations, Tao Heung Group for the IMPACTable initiative.
👥Mr. and Mrs. Chung from the Methodist Centre, as well as caregiver Pearl and mother also joined the luncheon to share the joy of this meaningful inclusive luncheon.
💬 The event also featured a fireside chat, where guests from across the sectors shared insights on inclusive dining, elderly care, and cross-sector collaboration.
Queenie Man, Founder and CEO of The Project Futurus, spoke about her journey in promoting softmeal culture and how DBS Foundation has helped to support social enterprises to scale up and grow their impact.
Many cities around the world are dealing with the challenges of an ageing population, and Hong Kong is no different. According to the Census and Statistics Department, by 2043, more than one in three people in Hong Kong will be aged 65 or above. To prepare for this, the “Working Group on Promoting Silver Economy” has proposed 30 practical measures in five key areas: boosting “silver consumption”, developing “silver industry”, promoting “quality assurance of silver products”, enhancing “silver financial and security arrangements”, and unleashing “silver productivity”. These efforts will require strong teamwork between the government, community, and businesses.
