Community Housing Movement is a new initiative of the Hong Kong Council of Social Service. We are committed to working with property owners, NGOs and social enterprises to provide affordable and decent transitional social housing. The project is aimed at not only meeting the temporary housing needs of the grassroots without support of public rental housing, but also enhancing their individual capacity, and strengthening their community network. Through the provision of social housing, tenants are empowered to live independently in the market or move to the public rental housing.

After launching a couple of projects, we are now planning to release a new batch of flats located at Peng Chau, Island District. There are a total of 2 units in this project. The size area of each unit is approximately 600 ft². The term of release between operator and HKCSS will be around 5 years at the rent below market price. This site is not close to the city. In view of this, we will invite NGOs and social enterprises to submit the “letter of interest” to indicate your preference. The qualified operators are welcome to try anew innovative service model here. We can arrange site visit to interested agencies.

If your organization is not yet a recognized service operator, please also hand in the application form together with the “letter of interest” on or before July 26, 2019. For enquiry, please contact Ms. Yang at 3596 7557 or[email protected].

Thank you for your attention.
