BBE EP Day 2012 - 21 October 2012 Sunday





Grassroots Adviser Mdm Halimah Yacob graced the EP Day at Toh Guan View on 21 Oct 2012. It was a highly-spirited event and residents were happy to be engaged with the external agencies, which includes SCDF, NPC, Singapore Custom, NEA and etc. Local community such as student care and secondary school are also roped in to promote the importance of emergency preparedness and racial harmony. This event strengthens the understanding and ties between people of different races and religions, and builds up community’s skills and knowledge in coping with emergencies. It also helped to prepare residents on how to respond effectively to an emergency.

BBE Metro For Vision - 14 October 2012 Sunday





Metro (Private) Limited , our kind sponsor has generously offered free Presbyopia nonprescription over-the-counter reading glasses to our seniors 50 years old and above.

Presbyopia simply means you’re having trouble reading things up close.

On 14/10/2012 morning, 224 senior residents turned up at Bukit Batok East CC to get their free reading glasses,organised by Bukit Batok East Active Ageing Committee. With the help of the volunteers, the seniors were orderly channelled to the experienced Metro's staff to try out their free reading glasses. After today, reading has definitely become clearer for our seniors. Cheers !
