The idea of the project is to demolish the existing Shau Kei Wan House to make way for a new 22-storey building to be built on the same site. While the existing Shau Kei Wan House will be re-provisioned at the first 4 floors of the new building, the 5th and above floors will be co-living space for the youths with provision of facilitative, interactive and collaborative activities. The new building will be a modern facility promoting recovery of residents of Shau Kei Wan House on the one hand, and on the other, to enhance these discharged youths who may not have favourable family environment to receive further training to build up mature characters for a self-dependent and law abiding adulthood in a supportive and nurturing environment. With the support of SWD, the Society successfully acquired a grant of about HK$0.24 billion from HKJC to rebuild Shau Kei Wan House and to financially support the project, tentatively named as “Project Cheery Bay” for 3 years. Employment Service and Social Enterprise With the support of the Correctional Services Department (CSD), as well as having the Sunlink Holdings (H.K.) Ltd. to provide concessional rental for the shop’s premises, the SoBakery of our social enterprise, Bright Services Company Limited started to have trial run at the shopping mall (which is still under renovation) of Hing Man Estate in Chai Wan of Hong Kong Island. SoBakery is a new attempt of Bright Services in food and beverage business to serve local residents. It would also take corporate orders for bakery products, as well as snacks and drinks for parties and company functions. While the business model is relatively simple, SoBakery is opened with an objective to provide job placements and training for newly discharged young ex-offenders, who have received basic training on bakery when they were serving sentences. Upon the completion of renovation of the Hing Man Shopping Mall, the business of SoBakery is expected to become more stable.
