Fellow Members,
The Evening of May 26 is Special.
Our Club’s Fireside Chat this year focuses on ‘The Elderly
and the Changing Family Dynamic’. We have invited Dr. Ng
Li-Ling a psychiatrist and consultant to the Ministry of
Health on issues of the elderly. Dr. Ng is also active is
several community organizations which help the elderly.
Her talk will touch on how elderly issues like loss of
memory, health, dementia and so on can affect the family
and how we can all cope better. Her talk will be followed
by a discussion with you, the members.
Why You Should Attend
Many of us will have to, if not already, having to
face such issues concerning the elderly because our
parents may be under our care. On the other hand, some of
us are approaching the ‘elderly’ phase of our lives.
In any case, it this year’s Fireside Chat will address our
concerns and have your questions answered.
The Evening is also Special for another reason.
This year our Club’s Vocational Award recipient is The
Singapore Civil Defence Force. We have decided on the SCDF
because they have exemplified excellence in their
operations during the Nicoll Highway, and the tragic
tsunami incidents. Besides the high profile operations,
the members of the SCDF are also involved in countless
responses to calls from the public for help. So this year
we have decided to honour the organization as a whole.
More when their Citation is read when we present the
Vocational Award.
Yours and Your Spouses’ Presence are Needed
Your attendance with your spouse is needed to grace
the occasion and to lend your support to the Award and to
our invited Fireside speaker. If you know of a friend or
two who may also benefit from the Chat, please invite them
along.
Our Club Assembly is scheduled for 6.30pm and our Special
events will begin right after.
We look forward to welcoming you , your spouse and your
guests.
Best Wishes
Ronnie Neo
Vocational service Director
