'We pay home visits to elderly people in the district once a month. We chat with them and bring them household necessities, such as towels. During festive occasions, such as Christmas or Lunar New Year, we organise parties and games for them at the centre.
'We spend most of the time listening to the elderly talking about their daily lives. Many of them don't have any children, or their children live far away. Often, they get emotional when they talk about their children.
