Family Wellbeing

HKFWS is committed to enhancing family wellbeing. The Society helps families to understand the status of their family wellbeing by conducting socially relevant and culturally appropriate research such as the Hong Kong Family Wellbeing Index. Based on their own research, we have created an online self-assessment tool covering six family domains that enable anyone to benchmark their own family wellbeing to further understand their own family situation. We also provide professional advice to enhance the family wellbeing of the general public.

My girlfriend and I just got married and recently relocated to a new home where the living environment is overcrowded. How can we create a good living environment and make our life comfortable?


To create a good living environment, you can start with interior design. For example, you can place a mirror in an appropriate position, which will make you feel as if the living space has been enlarged. Sometimes the living environment is overcrowded because of material desires, which makes people consume irrationally and lead to an excess of sundries accumulated in our homes. Therefore, we must know how to consume rationally. Only buying what is needed and knowing how to "discard" is crucial; we must decisively discard or pass on unnecessary and useless items to those in need. It is also important to regularly clean up to make the environment look tidy and refreshing. Moreover, quality of life is not determined by the size of the living area. Spiritual support should also be considered. Couples may wish to spend the holiday together to participate in outdoor activities, go to the countryside to breathe fresh air, enjoy the natural scenery, or develop various interests. All of these can improve the quality of life for you and your wife.
