The Carelinks Cadre organised a two-day annual training camp between October 21 and 22. Over 90 Carelinkers gathered at Pak Sha Wan TWC Sea Activity Centre to celebrate the 18th anniversary of the Cadre.
Chairlady of Carelinks Cadre Ms Kattie Chan, who hosted the annual forum, reviewed the progresses and achievements of various projects and shared the skills for peer counselling with the Carelinkers. They were also encouraged to make use of the designated e-platform to make suggestions for the future development of the Cadre. Chief Superintendent of Personnel Services and Staff Relations (PS&SR) Branch Lee Chung-wah commended the Carelinkers and appointed the new batch of Steering Group members. Senior Clinical Psychologist Mak Wing-fan presented appointment letters to the Carelinkers.
Established in 2005, the Carelinks Cadre aims to promote positivity and mental health, and provide peer counselling and support to our comrades. At present, the voluntary group has 114 members, comprising 95 serving officers, two auxiliary officers and 17 affiliated members (retirees and civilians). Officers in charge of the Carelinks Helpline are specially trained members who are committed to observing the professional code of ethics and duty of confidentiality. All callers may keep anonymous.
