Background information:
1	I have been a volunteer for over 10 years. I started to be a volunteer as early as in 1979!   
2	I participated in different kinds of volunteer services.  In recent years, I visited patients in hospitals and helped out in community centre.  I also helped out in the election.    
3	The most impressive service was a concern visit at the Cheung Chau Hospital.  We met many aged who have been in the hospital for a long time.  At first, we did not know what to talk about.  Later on, I found them all to be friendly and willing to share.  
May be you think that it is not a big deal for a volunteer to listen to others.  However, it means a lot to those who stay in the hospital for a long time.  Your patience and care are so valuable that the patients there treasure very much.   
Interview questions:
1	In fact, I was hospitalized for about 2-3 weeks.  It was so boring.  I fully understand the feeling as a patient.  I am eager to visit and chat with them again.  I am sure that volunteer service makes people come closer.  
2	Well, it's a matter of time management!  Even though I use my time to do volunteer work, I still find time for shopping and going to cinema.  Being a volunteer would not upset your schedule for other hobbies!
When you are a volunteer, you are not giving out.  On the contrary, you gain a lot.  For example, you can strengthen your interpersonal skills and have different exposures to the community.  It's worthy to do so!  
3	I work in a telecommunication company in Hong Kong. Because of the job nature, I find myself and some of my colleagues do not have much opportunity to meet other people.  The interpersonal relationship become weaker in the age of information technology.  Volunteer work is the best way to build up human touch again.  It is the most powerful and direct means to express your care and concern to others. 

背景資料
1	我本身由1979年已開始當義工，中間有幾年因為進修而停下來，計起來也有十年了。
2	包括探訪醫院裡的病人，社區中心的小朋友以至
助選。
3	近期較難忘的是到長洲醫院探望一些長期住院的老人家。可能因為陌生的關係，接觸時，談話不多。但一開始談話後，院友都十分健談。我想作為義工，聆聽一下，可能你會覺得沒有什麼大不了。但對於那些長期住院的病人來說，有人探望他們傾談已是比藥物更好的治療。
訪問題目 : 
1	其實我自己都試過住在醫院2至3星期。那感覺很沉悶，我想我是身同感受他們的情況，很希望拉近人與人之間的距離。
2	都係時間管理的問題吧！我雖然當義工，但我也可以行街、睇戲；當義工，不會影響你其他的興趣的！
其實當義工時，我覺得不是你去服務別人，而剛巧是倒轉的，你其實有很多得著，例如擴闊了生活圈子，加強人際關係，眼界也開放了。
3	我在本港一間電訊公司裡工作，因為工作關係，我覺得與人接觸的機會很少。尤其在現今社會越來越電子化，與人的隔膜越來越嚴重的時候，當義工就是給你與人接觸的機會。人對人是最好的，最直接展現互相關懷及分享。

Background information
1	I have participated volunteer service since joining my company's volunteer team, which was set up around a year ago.   
2	I participated in several volunteer service projects including concern visits to the elderly, the teenagers and the hospitals.  
3	I remember the visit to the people with severe grade mentally and/or physically disability at the Caritas Hospital.  As I have never met these service targets, the visit was memorable.  Though with great limitations in daily life and mental and physical disabilities, they were so excited to see us visiting them.  Just by looking at their cheerful eyes, I found the passion to visit and serve them again! 
Interview questions: 
1	When you saw how happy the service targets were, you would find it worthy to spend your time with them.  They moved me and I felt full of joy.     
2	We usually schedule our services at weekends.  I think it is not a hard job to allocate time for volunteer service especially when you realize that is something meaningful and worthy to do.
On the other hand, I think the support from the company is also very important.  I am working for a property management company.  My seniors are supportive.  They provide us with the flexibility in adjusting the work schedule to facilitate our preparation for volunteer service.   
3	I encourage my friends and colleagues to join volunteer service by sharing my joyful and happy experiences in volunteer service with them.  Our volunteer team also posts the pictures on the intranet so that all our colleagues can share our moments.  
Our company also arranges some volunteer training courses for us.  I think that the best way to persuade others to join volunteering is to invite them to join a service so that they can feel the impact through the process and experience in serving others.    

背景資料
1	自公司一年多前成立義工隊時，已是成員之一。
2	參與的服務包括探訪老人、青少年人及醫院。
3	最深刻的一次是到明愛醫院探訪一班嚴重弱智及肢體傷殘的人士。因為自己本身較少接觸此類人士，所以特別難忘。那天見到他們時，發現他們雖然因身體及精神上的缺陷而令生活上有不便的地方，但見到他們因為我們來到探望而展露歡顏的樣子，使我有一顆熱切的心，希望再次服務他們。
訪問題目 : 
1    當你見到服務對象得到幫助後那開心的表現，直接地感染到我也都開心許多。那份喜悅使我願意付出時間，而且我覺得這是十分有價值的。
2  許多時，我們都在星期
六、日做服務，當你覺得什麼是較有意義及重要時，你自不然就會為義工活動開籌備會議或準備，而撥出時間。我也會衡量它的重要性，把時間分配使用。
另外，上司的支持其實也很重要，我的職業是與物業管理有關的，上司亦十分體諒，會在工作上作出安排，好讓我們和其他同事在工餘後安排時間開會商討義工服務的細節。
3	我們把在義工服務中的喜悅跟我的同事分享。有時我們都把照片放在內聯網上讓其他同事都感受到箇中的樂趣。
而且公司不時都會安排義工訓練。做義工其實不但服務其他人，自己都學會了許多東西。所以我會邀請身邊的同事嘗試落實地做一次服務，那麼他們便更能直接及真實地感受到當中的樂趣。
