Description

Imagine that one day you can no longer eat your favourite food and are fed with “pureed meals" every day--how would you feel? Does it ever occur to you that this is the daily routine of people with dysphagia? On another note, when we get old, is eating just for survival? The Project Futurus, a social enterprise, strives to promote positive ageing in the community through organising activities such as softmeal-making workshops and “Sensory Restaurant on Wheels™”. By joining this activity, participants will learn to make softmeals as a way to restore the shape and taste of different dim sum dishes so that people with dysphagia can also eat with dignity. Besides, the founder, Queenie, will also share her entrepreneurial journey. What are the ups and downs she has been experiencing since founding a social enterprise? Come join us if you are interested in knowing more about softmeals or planning to start your own social enterprise!

軟餐俠:打開樂齡飲食新一章
試想像如果有一天你無法再享用喜歡的美食,每天只能以一模一樣的「糊仔」裹腹,你會有什麽感受?有想過這是吞嚥困難人士的日常嗎?但當我們年老時,進食真的只為維生嗎? 
 
社企The Project Futurus透過舉辦軟餐工作坊、流動五感大茶樓等活動,在社區推廣積極正面的樂齡生活。在今次活動中,參加者將會學習製作軟餐,以還原食物的形狀和味道,從而讓吞嚥困難人士能夠有尊嚴地進食。創辦人Queenie亦會分享她從策劃至創立社企的創業之路,以及當中經歷的種種困難與成長。如果你對製作軟餐有興趣或有意創業,立即報名參加吧!
