The Used Clothing Collection Campaign 2015, one of the social responsibility initiatives of the Force and a joint venture with the Salvation Army, has collected 127 230 kilograms of clothing and used items from 23 collection points.

A Handing-over cum Recognition Ceremony was held at Police Headquarters on March 10, with Assistant Commissioner (Personnel) Tang Ping-keung and Envoy Simon Wong, Community Relations Director of the Salvation Army, officiating.

Thanking the participating units for their contributions to the collection campaign, Mr Tang called on them to continue to support the annual campaign. He stressed that the campaign aims at, on one hand, promoting environmental protection and, on the other hand, extending care to the under-privileged.

As a token of their gratitude, Envoy Wong presented souvenirs to the representatives from the participating units for their contributions to the collection campaign.

The Used Clothing Collection Campaign 2016 is underway and Force members are encouraged to send their used items, such as clothing, toys, electrical appliances, computers, pianos and books, to the collection points set up at Police Headquarters, New Territories South Regional Headquarters, Marine Harbour Division, Marine South Division, Tuen Mun Division, Castle Peak Division, Auxiliary Police Headquarters, Police Sports and Recreation Club, Police Married Quarters and Disciplined Services Quarters in Police College, Old Bailey Street, Wong Tai Sin, Yau Mei Court, Ko Cheung Court, Shun Lee, West Kowloon, Lai King, Tsing Yi, Kwai Fuk Court, Kwai Yung Court, Yuen Long, Sheung Shui and Tuen Mun Wu Hong.
