Health and Well-being
Lot One Shoppers’ Mall, together with the Health Promotion Board, hosted aerobics sessions every
first and last Tuesday of the month. The hour-long workout sessions offered fun exercises for
shoppers to tone up and get their hearts pumping.
Bukit Panjang Plaza hosted a myriad of activities at the Garden Plaza that benefitted the community
and added vibrancy to the mall. Besides the regular Qigong, Dance Fit and Line Dance cum
Jamming sessions by North West Community Development Council and Senja-Cashew Community
Club, the mall also worked closely with other organisations to organise events. In May 2014, the
Health Promotion Board held the ‘Million Kg Challenge’ event that aims to help Singaporeans lose one
million kilogrammes collectively. In conjunction with this challenge, celebrity artiste Patricia Mok,
hosted a two-day event that featured aerobic dance workouts, as well as useful tips on healthy living
through fun activities and interactive games.
Youth Support
Delta League is an island-wide youth engagement programme jointly organised by the Singapore
Police Force and National Crime Prevention Council. Delta League held the flag off of the Community
Day at JCube with their community partners and representatives from the Football Association of
Singapore. Delta League used the ubiquitous football as a key platform to keep youths meaningfully
occupied and away from crime.
My Schoolbag Programme
CapitaLand’s key annual corporate social responsibility programme ‘My Schoolbag’ continued to
reach out to the community in 2014. Together with five Community Development Councils, student
and staff volunteers, we reached out to children from low-income families. The programme was held
at Junction 8, Lot One Shoppers’ Mall and Westgate, as well as two CapitaLand’s malls (Bedok Mall
and The Star Vista). Each child was given a school bag and was accompanied by volunteers to shop
for stationery, school shoes and daily necessities at participating tenants. In 2014, this meaningful
programme benefitted 1,000 underprivileged children in Singapore.
PROGRAMMES FOR TENANTS
Initiated in 2006, the Biz+ Series is a tenant engagement programme comprising seminars,
workshops and networking sessions which are organised with the aim to add value to our tenants’
businesses and partner their growth. In 2014, we conducted three Biz+ Series seminars and our third
‘CEO Breakfast Roundtable’ for our tenants. These well received events were good platforms for
networking and knowledge sharing of the current industry trends. The topics were centred on service
excellence and improving productivity to help tenants expand knowledge and address challenges in
the retail industry.
