2 or 3 Things I Know about North West

Introduction
Yuen Long, Tuen Mun and Tin Shui Wai are some of the fastest-growing districts in Hong Kong. Within a decade, there is a rapid population growth within these districts which brings up a million population.

“Communion, City, Creativity” – we unite the NGOs within the districts and design a series of programme for Cantonese and Mandarin-speaking teenagers. Through the programmes, we encourage teenagers to express their wishes and visions towards the community with their creativity.
