CPA Takes Part in Football Ambassador Volunteer Programme
On 28 April 2018, China Patent Agent (H.K.) Ltd. (CPA) took part in the "Football Ambassador" programme organised by Fu Hong Society (FHS). The programme involves persons with disabilities to participate in the most popular sport of football to help them with their inclusion in the society.
CPA's participating players included staff members from its Electronics & Electricity Department, Mechanics Department, Chemistry Department, Finance Department, and Trademark Department. They were on the pitch that day playing friendship matches with the players with disabilities and social workers from FHS, joined also by China United Football Club and Civil Aid Services Hong Kong Football Team members. After the matches, the players were brought together for a barbecue near Aberdeen Reservoir. They had a nice time there enjoying the delightful scenery, socialising and relaxing.
FHS is a local non-profit organisation established in 1977 focusing on rehabilitation services for persons with autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disabilities, psychiatric disabilities or physical disabilities.
