Visually impaired persons with multiple disabilities from Morning Glory DAC cum Hostel and Home of Delight enjoyed the Taiwan exchange tour

47 visually impaired persons with multiple disabilities from Morning Glory DAC cum Hostel and Home of Delight and their staffs, family members and volunteers attended the “9th Mentally Handicapped Professional Seminar of Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau” in Taipei from 20 – 25 May 2018.

 

“Equal Participation‧Social Inclusion” as the theme

Three-day exchange conference tour

 

Two essays from Morning Glory DAC cum Hostel were selected as poster presentation in the seminar, to share the work experience on life and death education. One of our resident Fai was invited to attend the Opening Ceremony, chit-chatted with the host and spoke out the theme in Mandarin. 

 

Their first experience, the meal on aeroplane was so yummy!

 

It was a very special tour to our three residents: Lai, Cheung and Chung, as it was their first time to travel by aeroplane, and enjoyed the aeroplane meal. They appreciated them a lot.

 

Apart from attending the conference and services exchange, they explored many places in Taiwan, included enjoying the delicious Taiwanese style roasted chicken, visited the Golden Waterfall etc. With the assist of audio description, the participants could feel the scenes personally. All these experiences became the unforgettable memories in their mind.
